Kuuasema, the Finnish studio behind the acclaimed games Bike Unchained 3 and Astro Blade, has announced their latest project: Cthulhu Keeper. This dark fantasy strategy game masterfully blends stealth mechanics with intricate tactical gameplay, drawing inspiration from the chilling works of H.P. Lovecraft and the iconic Dungeon Keeper. Players will have the opportunity to delve into the depths of darkness.
The game is set in the shadowy world of the 1920s, where you take on the role of a burgeoning doomsday cult leader. Your task is to build a clandestine lair, a hidden sanctuary for your followers and the terrifying creatures you summon. These followers will be dispatched on covert missions to acquire forbidden artifacts, expand your following, and evade the ever-vigilant authorities. Each monstrous entity demands a specifically designed chamber, crafted using ancient grimoires and mysterious relics. Simultaneously, you must fortify your underground haven against rival cults and government agents using cunning traps and unwavering guards.
Harnessing the power of arcane texts and forgotten artifacts, you'll summon horrific beings, each requiring a unique and meticulously crafted dwelling. Maintaining secrecy is paramount – outsmarting the law and undermining rival factions is essential for the cult's survival. Strategic planning, clever defenses, and ruthless tactics will dictate the fate of your sinister organization.
Cthulhu Keeper is slated for release on Steam in the near future, although a precise launch date remains unannounced by the developers.
