THE CITY OF INNSMOUTH SLEEPS.
Decades ago, the greedy human mayor of Innsmouth, Obed Marsh, made a deal with the Sea God, Dagon. His town would grow and Dagon's army would have a fresh supply of human-Deep One hybrids. The time is nigh to collect on that deal. So Dagon sends you, the laziest of their battle commanders to totally not be lazy and in fact do awesome stuff in the name of monsterkind.
THE REMAKEMASTER YOU NEVER KNEW YOU ALWAYS NEEDED.
Explore the world, find new allies, add them to your army! Get ready for the one big battle at the end of the game! Unless there are, in actuality, more than one! Oh, tension! But that's only one of two fun combat mechanics!
When you are not invading towns with your army, combat is handled through conversation: the ancient art of smack talk.
Topics range from philosophical quandaries to petty schoolyard insults. Is your brain ready to face whatever the heck gets thrown at it?
100% HUMAN MADE!
Made by human beings and not AI! Goes without saying, but in a time where people are finding it harder and harder to separate human-made art from genAI slop, we feel that it is important to put this out there!
