How it feels

A tense, claustrophobic crawl through dark sewers where you rely on candlelight to navigate and evade lurking threats.

What players say

Players are split on The Cesspit. Many praise the graphics, sound, and monster designs but are frustrated by a punishing save system that relies on scarce ink cartridges, especially in early sections. The stamina mechanic forces players into lockers, and some find the difficulty more reliant on luck than skill.
