Basement Crystals game artwork
Lampmule Games is a new independent studio making games about discovery and hands-on experiments. Our first project is Basement Crystals: an intimate laboratory where players grow crystals and learn from each new attempt. We want to make experiences people return to for their atmosphere and sense of curiosity.

About This Game
Experiment. Observe. Collect.
Prepare a run on the laptop, choose a crystal type, and set the starting conditions. As it grows, read the reactor's state, respond to warnings, and compare recent settings. Every decision affects the appearance and evaluation of the finished specimen.
Contracts give each experiment a clear goal, while free experiments let you test your own ideas. At the end, review the report and growth history. Keep your crystal in the collection, display it in the case, or sell it.
