La Madriguera

La Madriguera is a narrative survival game set in an underground shelter that grows increasingly unstable. You control a group of survivors managing resources, crafting tools, and maintaining order as paranoia and scarcity escalate each day.

Turn-Based Tension and Resource Scarcity

The game unfolds through daily turns where you assign survivors tasks—like scavenging tunnels, maintaining air filters, or calming group tension. Each choice has consequences, and supplies are limited. Running low on food or light can spark chaos within the group or trigger underground threats to emerge.

Survivor stats change dynamically based on hunger, stress, and interpersonal conflicts. Managing these variables becomes the key to surviving deeper into the campaign.

Crafting and Adaptation Inside The Burrow

La Madriguera allows you to create custom stations and tools using salvaged debris. From crude lanterns to makeshift hydroponics, everything must be earned through careful allocation of time and materials.

• Noise management system where some tools draw dangerous attention
• Randomized events that alter tunnels or unleash mutations
• Psychological breakdowns that impact productivity and decision-making

Multiple Paths Through The Underground

Each playthrough of La Madriguera is different. You may find an exit tunnel early but lack supplies to escape. Or a new survivor may arrive bringing danger and hope in equal parts. The game offers several paths toward resolution, such as:

1. Building a deep tunnel signal beacon
2. Excavating a chamber with ancient tech
3. Triggering an endgame event through survivor unity or collapse

La Madriguera thrives on pressure, mystery, and player-driven consequences. It’s not just about surviving the burrow—it’s about keeping hope alive when the walls begin to crack.
