Stirring Abyss is a tactical RPG where you control a squad exploring deep ocean trenches after your submarine crashes. You'll manage a crew of survivors, making decisions about which dark underwater passages to investigate while rationing resources and dealing with injuries. Combat plays out on a grid, with positioning and character abilities determining outcomes. As your crew ventures deeper, they encounter strange phenomena that can mutate them—granting new powers but changing them in unsettling ways. The setting draws from cosmic horror traditions, with ancient structures and incomprehensible entities lurking in the abyss. Missions involve turn-based battles against hostile creatures and environmental puzzles. Character progression lets you develop each survivor's skills, though some upgrades come with a cost. Expect resource scarcity, permadeath stakes, and a tone that leans into dread rather than action.
