About the Game

3vs1 Asymmetrical Multiplayer

  • Be the hunter... - choose from a roster of legendary monsters (Dracula, Francenstein's Monster, Striga, Mi-Go) and hunt the heores down before they outplay you

  • ...or the prey - our heroes inspired by historical figueres (Doc Holiday, Lucy Westerna, Eugène-François Vidocq, Nel Rawlinson, Captain Nemo) are not strong enough to down the monster, but they have tricks, traps and magic to level the playing field 

  • Cooperation is key - work with your team, find team synergies and outsmart the monster to win the match

  • Heores need to - gather resources, activate the pylons gathering the essensce and perform a harvesting ritual during a nailbiting match finale where the monster is the strongest he can be... and he knows where to find you.

  • Monster has to - track their prey, pick the weakest link and catch them before they finish their objective. If all heores are down, the Monster wins! 

  • PvP or PvE - If you don't have a 4th player to play as the Monster you can always run a PvE game and try to outsmart a TRUE MONSTER

Mutual invisibility

Both teams exist on two planes of existence, as the monster resides in the ghostly world, only able to materialize for a limited time. The monster needs to utilize his skills to track and defeat heroes, while heroes have to use their toolkit to get a warning ahead of the monster's attack.

When Napoleon met Cthulu

Demeter is set in an alternate version of Earth where history was reshaped in the early 19th century. After being exiled to Elba, Napoleon struck a pact with the Great Cthulhu, returned to Europe, and with the help of Deep Ones and steam-powered technology won the campaign, and destroyed the armies of the Seventh Coalition during the Waterloo Slaughter.
