The acclaimed Finnish studio Kuuasema, renowned for their work on Bike Unchained 3 and Astro Blade, has just announced their latest project: Cthulhu Keeper. This sinister fantasy strategy game masterfully blends stealth mechanics with intricate tactical gameplay, drawing inspiration from the haunting narratives of H.P. Lovecraft and the iconic Dungeon Keeper. Players are invited to delve into the darkness and embrace the role of a doomsday cult leader.
Set against the chilling backdrop of the 1920s, Cthulhu Keeper places you at the helm of a burgeoning cult. Your mission is to build a clandestine lair that serves as a sanctuary for your devoted followers and the eldritch horrors you summon. These creatures will be dispatched on daring missions to secure forbidden artifacts, enlist new believers, and evade the ever-vigilant police force. Each monstrous entity demands a uniquely designed chamber, crafted with the aid of ancient grimoires and enigmatic relics. Additionally, your underground haven must be fortified against rival cults and government enforcers using cunning traps and vigilant guards.
Harnessing the power of arcane tomes and long-lost artifacts, players can summon a variety of abominable creatures, each requiring a tailored dwelling. However, maintaining secrecy is paramount—dodging the law and undermining rival factions are essential for survival. Success hinges on clever defenses, strategic planning, and ruthless cunning.
Cthulhu Keeper is slated for a "soon" release on Steam, though Kuuasema has yet to announce a specific launch date. Keep an eye out for more updates as the release approaches.
