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. Players will delve into the shadows and embrace the power of darkness.
The game is set in the mysterious 1920s. Players lead a burgeoning doomsday cult, constructing a hidden underground lair to shelter their followers and the terrifying creatures they summon. Missions involve acquiring forbidden artifacts, expanding their following, and evading the watchful eyes of the authorities. Each monstrous minion demands a specifically designed chamber, built using ancient grimoires and mysterious relics. The lair itself must be fortified against rival cults and government agents using cunning traps and vigilant guards.
Players will command a roster of eldritch horrors, each requiring unique accommodations within their expanding base. Maintaining secrecy and outmaneuvering both the law and competing factions is critical to the cult's survival. Strategic planning, clever defenses, and ruthless tactics will be essential to success.
Cthulhu Keeper is slated for release on Steam in the near future, though a precise launch date hasn't been revealed by the developers.
