Fear & Hunger
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Fear & Hunger is a horror dungeon crawler set in the dark and hopeless dungeons of fear and hunger. Four misfortuned adventurers dwell deeper and deeper to the darkness and uncover the secrets this ancient fortress holds inside. The fortress works as an ancient nexus for different planes of existence. The depths are in an eternal turmoil as both old and new gods struggle for power, it’s up to the players to choose their position and stance in all of this.
The game is a hybrid of survival horror and dungeon crawler genres with its influences ranging from Silent Hill to Nethack. There are roguelike elements to the game as well as a heavy foundation of a j-RPG. Fear & Hunger is heavy on atmosphere and ruthless in its difficulty.
- Oppressive and relentless atmosphere
- 4 different character classes and many additional characters to recruit
- Unforgiving and unique gameplay
- Randomized elements to keep the game fresh with subsequent playthroughs
- Turn-based Strategic Dismember Combat System
- Graphical art style mixing pixel art with digital painting
- Original ambient soundtrack creating the dreary mood
The world of Fear & Hunger is VERY dark. THE GAME IS MEANT ONLY FOR MATURE AUDIENCES! Extreme violence and gore are everyday sights in the dungeons and death is one of the easier ways to go in the game. The game has drug and substance abuse, heavy themes ranging from self-mutilation to sexual violence. None of the themes are taken lightly however. They are all part of the world building and there to create the unique atmosphere where the game measures just how far the player is willing to go in order to survive.
Parts of the dungeon layout, events, loot and enemy placements are randomized with few different variations to keep things fresh with subsequent playthroughs. The game is designed with the classic trial and error formula, so you can expect to start the game over and over again. But as long as you learn from your mistakes, you can quickly find yourself at the deeper levels of the dungeon.
The combat in Fear & Hunger is turn-based akin to classic role-playing games, but with a twist of it’s own. You can target individual limbs of your enemies to dismember them strategically and thus maximize your chances for survival. However, just the same, enemies can also cut off the arms and the legs of your playable characters if you are not careful. You need to prepare well for every encounter if you wish to stay alive. But don’t forget that running away from threats is often the best solution as well. There are many ways for survival in Fear & Hunger - You can find better equipment, learn different blood and love magic, fuse characters into each other, pray different gods, talk your way out of battles, meet new party members, snipe enemies from distance, use traps to disable them… and so on. The Idea is to use what you got at your disposal and be creative with it.

Hello,
im from Germany and would love to have Fear & Hunger 1 and 2 on my Steam Account. Is there a way to get the Key there? My friendcode is 78829005. Thanks in advance and a Happy new year^^
Hello!,
Could I get a quick explanation on how to run the linux version of the game? I have made the file "Game" executable and tried to run it but nothing happens. I have Ubuntu 24.10.
Hey, I hope you've found the solution, but in case you haven't I followed a Steam answer and it worked for me! Credit to LeCrinjus:
".. All you need to do is to download NW.JS for your Linux distro (version 0.38.2 seems to work best), copy all the files inside the zipped archive and paste them into the game's path (/<steam path>/steamapps/common/Fear & Hunger).
After that you can directly run the "nw" executable in there and it'll open up the game. Just make sure the "package.json" file and "www" folder are in the same path as the "nw" executable so it can load the game files."
Original discussion.
I used the latest stable NW.JS and when it prompted confirmation for merge/replace, I answered yes to all files. Enjoy :D
Thanks for the advice. I have tried running the nw executable that comes with the game itself and that launches the game, I had no need to do anything else. It probably was added in recent versions, I just did not know that I executing "nw" instead of "Game" was an option, :/
Glad you got your game working :3 Have fun the in dungeon!
Hey, I hope you're doing well and had a wonderful christmas season. I also happen to be from germany where you still can't get Fear and Hunger 1 and 2 on Steam. I recently bought it but I'd love to have it on Steam so all games are in one library. I'd be very happy if you could send me a key to both Fear and Hunger games. Thank you very much in advance and a Happy 2025 to you!

First time actually playing was alright, but it could've been better.
In an earlier run, I was lucky to get that one healing spell, but then the torturer screwed me over when I wanted to save.
Now I'm stuck with a good team of 3, but didn't find a key to safe the girl.
I'll continue this later, I'm tired now.
It's a great and challenging game!
You can't stop being focused or you'll screw yourself over.
I would love to play this game,to bad am poor
