Games like Abyssal Breeder's Journal
by sasoriken-games
A dark, text-and-pixel monster-breeding sim. Hatch abominations, train them with a TRPG card hand, and send them off to the surface for good. Stats and Traits inherit down two separate bloodlines, so every generation is a deliberate choice, not a reroll.
