Stygian is a turn based RPG with point and click adventure elements. The game is still in it's development phase and it should be released in 2019. I've tried the demo of the game, and I got to say the game seems very promising. This is another one of those low budget games from Kickstarter, but don't let that fool you, this is a very atmospheric game where you will meet a lot of eldrich horrors from H.P. Lovecraft books. In this game your character will need to fight against all sorts of monstrosities and maintain his sanity in a small town casted inside another dimension.

In this monstrous place you will create a character and fight your demons, visions and mad humans infected by the insanity of the elder gods. Seems interesting doesn't it? Character creation is very interesting and you can chose several archetypes like soldier, explorer, academic, ocultist etc. and use their particular skills to survive in this mad world where grandfather Cthulhu lives. Heavily stylized art direction of the game, as you can see from screenshots, will be great to explore further once the full game releases. If you're fan of H.P. Lovecraft this game will be something you will have to experience.

Looks good, what platform is it for? I should check if they still take late backers...

PC, no more pledges it seems.

Poop, I will double check on the website.

Nope, at least I can follow it on steam. There also a demo!

THE characters creation of our own sounds like as in the jumanji 2 movie where there was a zoologist,dr,assasin etc like here we have archetypes like soldier, explorer, academic,. Sounds really interesting and fun .how are the graphics and sound effects? Thanks for sharing looks and sounds cool.

Everything is great. This game will be a hidden little gem for any Lovecraft fan.

best game for mind players, any player who want its mind with clear thoughts from old age. @moon32walker best budy you rock

looks great game maybe i will join

I had heard about this one, mainly from some friends who play Call of Cthulhu with me. The 2D graphics are tremendously suited to the atmosphere that this game wants to create, and as far as I know the madness system and the belief system are very cool. I'm really looking forward to the complete version of this one!

This looks decent. I'll have to watch a few let's plays to check it out
