📋 About This Mod

Sirenroot: Deluge of Deceit is a dialogue-heavy dungeon dive into Ayleid ruins with puzzles, platforming, and a focus on water mechanics.

With influences from Until Dawn, Tomb Raider and Dragon Age, you'll jump, climb, dive, solve puzzles and fight undead-

as well as control other characters, persuade, look for clues, and determine the fate of others.

A mysterious operatic voice was discovered within the depths of Lake Honrich, stemming from an unusual plant.

Light pours out from behind the roots, hinting at a flooded tunnel below.

You and a team of divers are hired by the Black-Briars to investigate the cave, and salvage the alchemical ingredient.

It appears a simple job at first, but as the cavern's structure falls apart around you, the team finds themselves buried in the ruins below.
