Delve Into The Secret of Weepstone Demo Now Available on Steam

As part of The Indie Horror Showcase, Talesworth Game Studio and publisher DreadXP are thrilled to reveal that a demo of their upcoming hand-drawn, black and white dungeon-crawling RPG, The Secret of Weepstone, is now available for PC gamers on Steam.

Guide your party of misfits and unlikely delvers into almost certain death in this black and white adventure beneath a ruined keep. Scrounge, loot, pilfer, and abscond with anything not nailed down in an effort to equip your group for deadly encounters in this nostalgic throwback inspired by classic Dungeons & Dragons campaigns of the 70s and 80s. This is not a tale of heroes; this is a tale of those who do what they must to survive.



The demo that is live on Steam as of the time of the Indie Horror Showcase is a taste of the full game, allowing players to take a party of 6 into the depths of the first level of Weepstone Keep, and discover what challenges and threats await within its crumbling walls.

The Secret of Weepstone is a dungeon-crawling RPG rendered entirely in striking hand-drawn black and white, an atmospheric love letter to the tabletop adventures and art of the 70s and 80s. Level up your party, uncover powerful new equipment to aid you in battle, survive deadly encounters, and snatch up all the loot you can. Will the dice fall in your favor?

The Secret of Weepstone features:
Black and white lineart style influenced by the early days of TTRPGs.
Roll the dice for combat and skill checks.
Face traps, puzzles, secrets, and more as you delve into unknown depths.
Fight a menagerie of foes, each rendered in hand-drawn black and white art.
Outfit your party with weapons, equipment, and magic items.
Embrace the inevitability of death, and gain unique "Mortal Favors" whenever characters die.
Guide a party of up to 8 members, filling your ranks with common villagers, battle-worn adventurers, possible heretics, and more.

The Secret of Weepstone will launch in 2026 for PC, and a demo of the game is now available on Steam.
