Dumb Souls
A downloadable game
Download NowName your own price
Dumb Souls is a clumsy Dark Souls-like built on active ragdolls. You are a hollow knight in Undead Burg: heavy claymore, two sips of Estus, and a body that over-commits every swing. Soldiers wait at their posts until they see you. Rest at a bonfire to refill your flask and set your checkpoint — and to bring the dead back. Deeper in, the Undead King holds his arena.
Don’t get greedy.
Features
- Physics-driven knight: walking, sprinting, rolling, and swinging through the ragdoll

- Backstabs from behind
- Stamina for attacks, sprints, and rolls
- Bonfires, Estus, and YOU DIED
- Sword and spear undead, plus a boss fight with the Undead King

Combat notes
- Press light again during the first slash to chain the return swing.
- Sprint + light performs a running attack.
- Attack an enemy from behind for a backstab.
- Attacks, sprint, and rolls spend stamina.
- Resting refills Estus and restores fallen enemies.
- Dying returns you to the last bonfire you rested at.
Dodge and rest both use A / Cross on a pad. Rest only works when you are in the bonfire prompt; otherwise that button dodges.
