UnReal World is a game developed by Enormous Elk, consisting of Sami Maaranen and Erkka Lehmus. It was started in 1992 and is under continued development to this day: the latest version just came out last month, even! Slowly over time, this game's gone through a ton of changes and additions to get to the point where it is now, and you can really see the polish on this gem.

Gameplay-wise, it's really more of a sandbox roguelike, if you want to think of roguelikes as having the potential to be in a sandbox environment. There are endless possibilities but you have to know how to achieve them and survive yourself through all the crazy stuff out to kill you, whether it be simple needs such as hunger and thirst, or the many wild animals willing to tear you limb from limb, or perhaps other humans seeking to steal your hard-earned valuables. It's a complex assortment of self-determined challenges most of the time, and we'll see how well that can work in a blind LP setting!

The first few videos will likely involve me figuring out how to actually do stuff, but after that, I'm very interested in trying out whatever you guys think is cool. Looks like we found a cave before, maybe those are the game's hot-spots when it comes to dungeoneering. Lemme know what you want me to accomplish over the course of this playthrough!

And because I completely forgot to do so in the video, big shoutout to Etop Owertwon for PMing me this game as a suggestion! I'm sure to get a lot out of it.
