Stygian: The Outer God's The package is impressive & should easily impress any fan of common day- ]*The Long Dark 60% (the way it looks and the way YOUR avatar rebounds or retorts or ''THINK'S OUT LOUD'' to himself) *Dishonored 20% (the way it looks and plays) *Bioshock 20% (the way it looks and plays) You'll see exactly why, just a few minutes into game. It won't take you long. I'm sure like myself, you won't put it down (easily-at least) quickly. -game is in First Person perspective, -background is Lovecraftian, (hallucinatory, other-worldly, mind-bending) The story background is, that your ship has crashed ashore at a place where, Witches used to roam, and apparently in the past were hunted down, with remnants of them everywhere. Game starts in the town, it's an early access title (like-Long Dark was), and moves outwards, functional mini-map. Plenty of places & skills to unlock, on a stage by stage approach. Your skill tree is amassed by collecting ''SINNER'S CARD'S'', as the game progresses, giving skills like Agility, Picklocking, extra strength. Atmosphere is excellent, as you play, YOUR AVATAR CHIDES along to situations giving updates on your circumstances and in game boundaries. MY OPINION IS-GET IT WHILE IN EARLY ACCESS-AMAZING PRICE FOR THIS (look for discount-get it even better) There is a workbench , allowing you to craft various, (lockpick's, bandages are crafted), you need to pick up blueprints for crafting. You have to manage, yourself, your mental health, and physical, BIT BY BIT. Gameplay, FIRST PERSON PERSPECTIVE, fighting the witches, you should unlock the stealth attack skill to take down from behind, there are the ''hell-hounds'', tough-as-nails, in the mine...and on. © Valve Corporation.

Pretty good. Early access about 4-6 hours. Story pacing and game flow done well. I got addicted to it and got bummed when the game stopped and said "thanks for playing early access, the end for now." Framerate can get terrible, hope that gets better. Guns are fine, but I'm not sure if melee is ironed out yet. Good for an indie game though. Think there are only two enemy type right now. Well done, keep at it!

Lovecraftian dread meets cosmic storytelling in a promising indie gem. If you're a fan of cosmic horror, deep lore, and immersive atmosphere, Stygian: Outer Gods is absolutely worth your attention. Even in its early access state, this game showcases a remarkable ability to draw players into a bleak and mysterious world inspired by Lovecraftian mythology. The unsettling sound design, cryptic narrative, and shadowy environments combine to deliver a chilling and captivating experience. The combat system feels deliberately paced, reinforcing the game's thematic weight and tension, while the exploration encourages thoughtful decision-making. It's clear the developers have poured a lot of passion into the world-building, and there's a real sense of impending doom that lingers throughout. Of course, being early access, there are a few rough edges—occasional bugs and some unbalanced mechanics—but they’re forgivable in the face of such ambition. The direction this game is heading is exciting, and I’m eager to see how it evolves with future updates. If you want to experience the game for yourself or just enjoy the ride without any interruptions, I’ve created a no commentary full game walkthrough so you can take in the atmosphere and story in its purest form: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO6XNZ3a9kE Whether you're a diehard fan of the genre or a newcomer to cosmic horror, Stygian: Outer Gods is shaping up to be a unique and unforgettable experience. Keep your lantern close—you’ll need it.

One of my first blind buys in a long time, and what a delight. The atmosphere is excellent, in large part due to the sound design so major kudos are due there, and the movement hardly ever feels clunky so navigating the environment always has the necessary weight to truly capitalize on the immersion said atmosphere cultivates. The marriage of coastal town with winter landscape was carried off wonderfully and added to the bereft feeling one gets combing through the remains of Kingsport. I won't say much about the town's inhabitants (as I'm of the opinion that a game is best experienced as unaware of its particulars as possible) but I'm very glad Stygian is offering a slow burn up to the real heavy hitters of Lovecraftian horror. And even if those heavy hitters never show? The presentation is still an original one. Especially with respect to the event that kicks off the chaos before the start of the game and the details of which we slowly uncover throughout our exploration. Incidentally the writing conveying some of those details is a little too cryptic and not in the sense that I didn't understand it but in the sense that it's cryptic for the sake of being cryptic, obvious in its intent and thus breaks immersion. Maybe that's just me since I look out for that in my own writing. As others have pointed out, the survival horror elements are there and real. Bullet economy is important, though healing items I would say are a little too prevalent and the sanity mechanic is negated by a couple "on tap" healing sources. If the developers care to read this, I'd suggest changing the sanity mechanic to be more punishing or prolonging segments where we lose sanity without being able to backtrack to said healing sources. I still want to feel rewarded for prep and caution but even on Hard I was smooth sailing through the cosmic horror, calm as a Hindu cow. Combat honestly isn't half bad. It's still a little clunky, as any horror immersive sim is, but not near so bad as some other members of its genre cohort. You're rewarded for planning on how to approach a combat encounter. Fleeing is a real option but dangerous as the threat of being pursued is real. I never felt like the threat was hamfistedly scripted in this way. I felt like I was dropped into a situation, so were the enemies, and the chips will fall where they may. And let me just say, I'm very glad this element of the game isn't a vestigial appendage to the larger game. Multiple weapons, multiple ammo types, with more on the way? Hell yeah. I also enjoyed the stats and abilities as well as how they're retrieved/acquired. I won't touch on this too much for the same reason I won't touch too much on the particulars of other parts of the game, but I feel like some stats/abilities blow others out of the water. I realize that this is likely/might be due to the fact the game is in early access but I felt punished for selecting some of the more "unique" options as opposed to the standard RPG options (Lockpicking for instance). All in all, a more than excellent start with a wealth of content already rolled out. Can't wait for the next update. P.S. - To those reviewing the game poorly simply because you can't run it, either upgrade your machine from its potato status or consider that an EA game ought not to be judged (at the absolute outset of EA) on its optimization. At that point you're not even reviewing the game but rather your own wallet and misrepresenting the actual quality of the game.

Do you like the trailers and game description? Good! Thats exactly what you are going to get, if you buy Stygian Outer Gods. As someone who played pretty much every Lovecraftian game i feel like at home! A promising title that borrows stealth elements from games like Gloomwood and Bethesda classic Dark corners of the earth ( relased in 2006) and its fantastic sanity mechanic......You feel like your character starts to go nuts, hearing sinister voices the more your sanity deteriorate. TLDR: Amazing deal with the current price tag BUT.....Mind this is the Eaaaaaarly access, so have patience and lets see if Misterial Games delivers.
