Kuuasema, the Finnish game studio behind the popular titles Bike Unchained 3 and Astro Blade, has announced their latest project: Cthulhu Keeper. This dark fantasy strategy game blends stealth elements with intricate tactical gameplay, drawing inspiration from H.P. Lovecraft's unsettling stories and the cult-classic Dungeon Keeper. Prepare to embrace the shadows.
The game is set in the shadowy world of the 1920s, where you lead a burgeoning doomsday cult. Your task is to build a clandestine lair to shelter your followers and the terrifying creatures you summon. These minions will undertake missions to acquire forbidden artifacts, expand your following, and outwit the ever-vigilant authorities. Each monstrous recruit demands a specifically designed chamber, constructed using ancient grimoires and mysterious relics. Furthermore, your underground haven must be fortified against rival cults and government agents using cunning traps and loyal guards.
Harnessing the power of arcane texts and forgotten artifacts, players summon horrific beings, each requiring a unique habitat. Maintaining secrecy is paramount; evading the law and undermining competing factions is essential for survival. Success hinges on strategic defense, careful planning, and ruthless efficiency.
Cthulhu Keeper is slated for release on Steam in the near future, though a precise launch date remains unannounced.
