Vaporum: Lockdown is a grid-based dungeon crawler set in the same dieselpunk universe as the original Vaporum, but designed as a standalone prequel with a stronger focus on story and puzzle-driven progression. You play as an engineer trapped inside the Arx Vaporum tower during a catastrophic lockdown, uncovering events that led to its downfall. The game leans heavily into atmosphere, using environmental storytelling, audio logs, and character interactions to slowly reveal dark secrets hidden within the mechanical depths.
Gameplay mixes classic first-person dungeon exploration with real-time combat on a tile-based grid. Instead of a party, you control a single mechanized suit, allowing for deeper customization and more tactical decision-making. Each floor introduces new mechanics, traps, and puzzles that require careful observation and smart use of gadgets. Combat emphasizes positioning, cooldown management, and enemy pattern recognition rather than reflex-heavy action.
With its gritty dieselpunk aesthetic, moody soundtrack, and thoughtful level design, Vaporum: Lockdown is ideal for players who enjoy methodical exploration, challenging puzzles, and immersive sci-fi worlds on Windows PCs.
