About

Deepwoken is a fantasy Roblox experience launched in 2021. The game revolves around difficult combat and exploration. Players can create custom characters and set out to explore a largely oceanic map, with two deaths sending a player to the "Depths" where a player can experience permadeath and reset their character.

History

Deepwoken was created by Vows by the Sea and released on December 20th, 2021.[1] The open-world game consists largely of open seas, which players can swim, sail across or drown in. The game comes with a stats system, NPC quests, Guilds, Boss monsters like the Primadon and various enemies like Bandit Camps. Players can also choose to fight each other, although this is uncommon.

When a character dies twice, they are sent to the "Depths," an underwater kingdom where players must fight for their lives to return to the main game. Once a player dies in the Deep, the character is reset. Characters also deal with thirst and hunger bars and can use their abilities to engage mechanics like building fires, fishing or crafting.
