After watching the announcement trailer forWhispers of the Eyeless, I have one request: please, do not have that voiceover in the full game. It is hammier than a hamster eating a ham sandwich in Hamburg during a performance of Hamlet. It starts with “The Whispers [of the Eyeless] call to me!!!” and does not improve from there. Beyond that, colour me fairly enthused.

“Assume the role of the last descendent of the Old Faith and First Prophet of the New Age in the city of Aranthor where new and old gods vie for power,” proclaimsthe Steam blurb. “Defeated, exiled and nearly forgotten, the Dead Gods have been silent for generations. But finally… the Whispers have returned. The ‘Dead’ Gods were not dead, and it is up to you to reinstate them to their full glory.”

There’s also the question of which particular Dead God you favour, with consequences including different decorations for your underground den of cosmic villainy. “Upgrade your base, enact divine Benedictions, and make Sacrifices to the Dead Gods to strengthen the cult and increase your power in the city as Prophet,” the blurb goes on. “The God you favor will impact yourSanctum’s appearance, which can be customized to your liking.”
