Kiipluu

Play as Kiipluu, a young hunter fleeing across hostile lands while pursued by the cannibalistic Na'ush. Outnumbered and under-equipped, you must rely on stealth, planning, and careful movement to survive. Direct combat is possible but always risky, always costly, and often a last resort. Every encounter is a tense survival puzzle. Study patrol routes, use tall grass, shadows, sound, and terrain to stay hidden. Set traps, strike from ambush, or slip past unseen. Being discovered can quickly become fatal.

When stealth fails, combat is fast, brutal, and unforgiving. Weapons are primitive. Injuries matter. There are no easy victories. Along the way, Kiipluu is haunted by dreamlike spirit journeys and visions of his father, a legendary hunter whose shadow looms over every choice. Your decisions shape who survives, who is lost, and what kind of person Kiipluu becomes. This is a story of fear, survival, and growing up in a world that wants you dead.

  • Embrace Hardcore Stealth Action: Study patrol routes, use tall grass, shadows, sound, and terrain to stay hidden. Set traps, strike with an ambush, or slip past unseen. Being discovered can quickly become fatal.

  • Craft to Survive: Prepare tools, weapons, and gear as you learn to lead to survive.
