This Escape Room challenges your wits like no other. You find yourselves trapped in a dungeon, with a series of puzzles, traps and... other things blocking your escape. But this is still Malum... watch out for the creatures in the dark!
This update also comes with some quality of life updates, including greatly improved character movement and a UI refresh.
Explore the dungeon, solve the puzzles and escape together - or die a grizzly chainsaw-related death, who knows?
Gotta go fast
This update brings with it some long sought-after balance changes and a new intro level.
Intro Level The first level has been completely re-done, now with a much spookier setting and what are definitely dead corpses hanging from the ceiling. Don't look up! They're definitely dead, and they definitely won't reanimate and kill you. We're absolutely 15% sure of it.
Speed Increase You'll find you move much faster in the game now, which should speed up your demon-hunting antics. We have to keep things fair though, so the demons will also move much faster than before. That may sound terrifying, but if anything it will make you death quicker, so there's a comforting thought.
Happy hunting!
Halloween Update
Halloween is upon us - time for a Malum update!
New Characters - Peggy and Rob are the latest additions to the squad.
New Items - Some substantial equipment options are now available. These consumables will let you see artefacts and even demons through walls, and one of them will even trap demons in place.
Achievements - A new secret achievement is out there, and the long awaited Magoroku Challenge will keep the masochists out there busy for a while.
Pets - Frederick the duck is a rare spawn that can be found in levels. If you catch him he'll be a permanent new addition to your van.
On top of this all cosmetics have been reduced in price throughout Halloween, so this is the perfect time to unlock the new characters and get the Halloween theme for your van.
Future Updates The observant among you may have noticed the above image is not set in an existing level. That's because it's from Evilator - the new map coming in November.
This adventure will be very different and more replayable than the others. The Evilator will transport you to a variety of locations, some new and some old, and you'll have a fixed amount of time to do what it demands before its doors shut on you forever. Will you be able to ride the Evilator all the way to its gruesome finale?
On a personal note I'd love to thank the community and everyone who has helped to shape Malum into what it is today. Your feedback and support has been invaluable and I love working on this game. So thanks again, and I can't wait to get more awesome content out there for you :)
