Sobre o jogo
In Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, the player journeys from a doomed Arkham into the depths of the Abyss. Create your own character based on 1920's archetypes and carve a path through a broken and mysterious world.
Your desperate battle against forces beyond comprehension will haunt you until the end. Physical combat will be challenging, spellcasting will have dire consequences, and your sanity will be strained to the breaking point by unknown abominations. Sometimes the best solution will be to flee what lurks beyond the threshold.
Features:- A hand drawn 2D world reflecting Lovecraft's themes of cosmic horror and dread.
- Enemies, environments and storylines inspired by Lovecraft’s iconic original works. Take part in quests inspired by your favorite stories and see them play out according to your own decisions and role-playing style.
- Choose from 8 main character Archetypes, each with its own origin backstory and specialties.
- A host of weird companions will accompany you on your ill-starred journey: the lonely, antediluvian 'Outsider', a fallen soldier of the Great War reanimated by Herbert West. Recruit these and other outlandish beings to your crew.
- Your character's Sanity and mental state will influence dialogue options. Mental illness comes with advantages as well as hindrances. Sometimes it pays to be mad in a world gone mad!
- Stygian's Belief System determines how your characters cope with the warped reality of the new Arkham, as well as the rate at which they regenerate lost Sanity. Belief Systems also offer unique dialogue options, expanding the breadth of role-playing possibilities.
- A new kind of spell system which sometimes takes more than it gives. Being a master of the occult is not as simple as flinging colored missiles from your fingertips. The black magic of Stygian is potent but may cost you your mind, your health, and possibly even much more.
- Strategic, turn-based combat from a 2D perspective, similar to the classic Heroes of Might and Magic games.
- The struggle in Stygian is not to save the world, for that battle is lost already. Pursue your own goals in these end times: salvation, vendetta, or perhaps something darker.

À propos du jeu
Dans Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, vous explorerez une Arkham condamnée jusqu'au tréfonds de l'abysse. Créez votre personnage à partir des archétypes des années 1920 pour traverser le monde de l'indicible et du mystérieux.
Votre bataille désespérée contre des forces qui dépassent l'entendement vous hantera jusqu'à la fin. Attendez-vous à des combats physiques éprouvants, à des incantations aux terribles conséquences et à voir votre santé mentale décliner irrémédiablement face à des abominations inconnues. Parfois, la meilleure solution est de fuir ce qui rôde derrière le seuil.
Caractéristiques :- Un monde en 2D dessinée à la main qui reflète l'effroi et les horreurs cosmiques propres à Lovecraft.
- Ennemis, environnements et scénarios inspirés par les œuvres mythiques de Lovecraft. Participez à des quêtes inspirées par vos histoires préférées et influez sur leur déroulement en fonction de vos décisions et de votre roleplay.
- Choisissez parmi 8 archétypes de personnage principaux possédant chacun sa propre histoire et ses spécialités.
- Divers compagnons étranges vous accompagneront dans votre voyage fatidique : « l'Outsider », une entité solitaire et antédiluvienne ; un soldat mort pendant la Grande Guerre et ressuscité par Herbert West ; ou encore un chat psychique (et narcissiste) originaire d'Ulthar. Recrutez ces compagnons et encore d'autres êtres extravagants pour vous prêter main-forte.
- La santé mentale de votre personnage influe sur les choix de dialogues. La maladie mentale a ses inconvénients, mais aussi ses avantages. Dans un monde qui a perdu la raison, il ne sert à rien de la garder !
- Le système de croyance de Stygian détermine la façon dont vos personnages réagissent à la réalité distordue de la nouvelle Arkham, ainsi que la vitesse à laquelle ils regagnent leur santé mentale. Les systèmes de croyance offrent aussi des choix de dialogues uniques pour enrichir les possibilités de roleplay.
- Un système de sorts d'un genre nouveau qui se retourne parfois contre vous. Maîtriser l'occulte ne se résume pas à lancer des projectiles colorés en claquant des doigts. La magie noire de Stygian est puissante mais peut vous coûter votre esprit, votre santé, voire bien plus encore.
- Des combats au tour par tour en vue 2D semblables à ceux des célèbres Heroes of Might and Magic.
- L'objectif de Stygian n'est pas de sauver le monde, car cette bataille est déjà perdue. Profitez de l'apocalypse pour poursuivre vos propres buts : salut, vengeance ou peut-être quelque chose de plus sinistre.
Review Scores and Quotes
Über das Spiel
In Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones reist der Spieler vom verdammten Arkham bis in die Tiefen des Abgrunds. Erstelle deinen eigenen Charakter, der auf den Archetypen der 1920er Jahre basiert, und bahne dir einen Weg durch eine zerstörte und geheimnisvolle Welt.
Dein verzweifelter Kampf gegen Feinde jenseits aller Vorstellungskraft wird dich bis ans Ende verfolgen. Die physischen Kämpfe sind herausfordernd, Zaubersprüche haben verhängnisvolle Konsequenzen und deine geistige Gesundheit wird von unbekannten Monstrositäten auf eine harte Probe gestellt. Manchmal ist es am besten, vor den Gefahren jenseits der Schwelle zu fliehen.
Features:- Eine handgezeichnete 2D-Welt, die auf den kosmischen Schrecken und Grauen von Lovecraft basiert.
- Feinde, Umgebungen und Geschichten, die von Lovecrafts ikonischen Originalwerken inspiriert wurden. Erfülle Quests, die von deinen Lieblingsgeschichten beeinflusst wurden, und erlebe, wie sie basierend auf deinen Entscheidungen und deinem Rollenspiel-Stil ihren Lauf nehmen.
- Wähle aus 8 Charakter-Archetypen, die alle eine eigene Hintergrundgeschichte und eigene Besonderheiten aufweisen.
- Ein Haufen seltsamer Typen wird dich auf deiner unglückseligen Reise begleiten: Der einsame, altmodische „Außenseiter“, ein gefallener Soldat aus dem Weltkrieg, der von Herbert West wiederbelebt wurde, eine Katze von Ulthar mit übernatürlichen Fähigkeiten (und einem Hang zum Narzissmus). Rekrutiere diese und andere absonderliche Wesen für deine Gruppe.
- Die geistige Gesundheit deines Charakters wirkt sich auf Dialogoptionen aus. Die Geisteskrankheit hat Vor- und Nachteile. Manchmal macht es sich bezahlt, in einer verrückten Welt selbst verrückt zu sein!
- Das Glaubenssystem von Stygian bestimmt, wie deine Charaktere mit der verdrehten Realität des neuen Arkham zurechtkommen und wie schnell sich ihre geistige Gesundheit regeneriert. Außerdem bieten die Glaubenssysteme einzigartige Dialogoptionen, die die Möglichkeiten des Rollenspiels erweitern.
- Ein neuartiges Zaubersystem, das manchmal mehr nimmt als zu geben. Ein Meister des Okkulten zu sein, bedeutet nicht, einfach ein paar bunte Geschosse aus den Fingerspitzen verschießen zu können. Die schwarze Magie von Stygian könnte dich deinen Verstand, deine Gesundheit und vielleicht sogar noch mehr kosten.
- Strategische, rundenbasierte Kämpfe in 2D-Ansicht – ähnlich wie bei den klassischen „Heroes of Might and Magic“-Spielen.
- Die Schwierigkeit von Stygian besteht nicht darin, die Welt zu retten – sie ist schon verloren. Stattdessen musst du deine eigenen Ziele verfolgen: Erlösung, Blutrache oder vielleicht sogar etwas noch Düstereres.

Sometimes the best solution will be to flee what lurks beyond the threshold.
Features:- A hand drawn 2D world reflecting Lovecraft's themes of cosmic horror and dread.
- Enemies, environments and storylines inspired by Lovecraft’s iconic original works. Take part in quests inspired by your favorite stories and see them play out according to your own decisions and role-playing style.
- Choose from 8 main character Archetypes, each with its own origin backstory and specialties.
- A host of weird companions will accompany you on your ill-starred journey: the lonely, antediluvian 'Outsider', a fallen soldier of the Great War reanimated by Herbert West. Recruit these and other outlandish beings to your crew.
- Your character's Sanity and mental state will influence dialogue options. Mental illness comes with advantages as well as hindrances. Sometimes it pays to be mad in a world gone mad!
- Stygian's Belief System determines how your characters cope with the warped reality of the new Arkham, as well as the rate at which they regenerate lost Sanity. Belief Systems also offer unique dialogue options, expanding the breadth of role-playing possibilities.
- A new kind of spell system which sometimes takes more than it gives. Being a master of the occult is not as simple as flinging colored missiles from your fingertips. The black magic of Stygian is potent but may cost you your mind, your health, and possibly even much more.
- Strategic, turn-based combat from a 2D perspective, similar to the classic Heroes of Might and Magic games.
- The struggle in Stygian is not to save the world, for that battle is lost already. Pursue your own goals in these end times: salvation, vendetta, or perhaps something darker.

Об игре
В игре Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones вам предстоит спуститься из обреченного Аркхема в жуткие глубины Бездны. Вы должны создать персонажа, основываясь на архетипах 1920-х годов, и прорубить себе путь сквозь полный загадок изломанный мир.
Вас ждут отчаянные схватки с могущественными силами за пределами человеческого понимания. Физические битвы здесь доводят до изнеможения, колдовство оборачивается страшными последствиями, а стычки с неописуемо ужасными тварями грозят свести вас с ума. Порой единственное спасение от того, кто притаился за порогом, – это повернуть прочь и бежать без оглядки.
Особенности:- Нарисованный от руки двумерный мир, пронизанный атмосферой вселенского ужаса.
- Противники, декорации и сюжетные линии, вдохновленные культовыми произведениями Лавкрафта. Вам предстоит принять участие в заданиях, основанных на ваших любимых историях, но ход событий будете определять уже вы сами.
- На выбор представлено 8 архетипов главного героя, у каждого из которых – своя предыстория и свой набор навыков.
- В этом злополучном походе вас будут сопровождать разнообразные чудные спутники: одинокий допотопный Чужак; павший на Великой войне солдат, которого реанимировал Герберт Уэст. Этих и других диковинных созданий вы сможете принять в свой отряд.
- Психическое состояние вашего персонажа влияет на выбор реплик в диалогах. Психические заболевания могут стать для вас как помехой, так и подспорьем. В мире, сошедшем с ума, иногда проще быть безумцем.
- Система верований определяет, как ваши персонажи справляются с искаженной реальностью нового Аркхема, а также с какой скоростью у них восполняется показатель психики. Также система верований открывает уникальные ветки диалогов, расширяя возможности для ролевого отыгрыша.
- Оригинальная система заклинаний, в которой вы иногда теряете больше, чем приобретаете. Под знатоком оккультных наук понимается вовсе не тот, кто умеет испускать разноцветные снаряды из кончиков пальцев. Черная магия в Stygian могущественна, но она может губительно сказаться на вашем разуме, вашем здоровье и, возможно, много на чем еще.
- Пошаговые тактические бои в двумерной перспективе, похожие на те, что были в классических играх из серии Heroes of Might and Magic.
- В Stygian вам предстоит бороться не за спасение мира, ведь эта борьба уже проиграна. Перед тем как наступит конец света, вы должны успеть добиться своей цели, будь то спасение души, вендетта или что-то более мрачное.

关于游戏
在《冥河:旧日支配者之治》中,玩家将踏上从末日阿卡姆闯入深渊的旅程。基于上一世纪20年代的人物原型来创建你的角色,在破碎和神秘的世界里开辟出一条新道路。
你与未知力量的殊死搏斗将持续到最后一刻。肉搏战将充满挑战,魔法的施放将产生可怕的后果,未知的憎恶将让你的神志紧张到崩溃边缘。有时候最好的解决方案就是远远躲开潜伏在入口上方的怪物。
特色:- 呈现洛夫克拉夫特宇宙恐怖与恐惧主题的手绘2D世界。
- 受洛夫克拉夫特标志性原创作品启发的敌人、环境和剧情。加入你最喜欢的故事征程,根据你自己的决定和角色扮演风格,推动剧情的发展。
- 从8位主人公原型中选择角色,每一位都有自己的背景故事和专长。
- 一群奇怪的伙伴将陪你共闯这段多灾的旅程:与世隔绝的“局外人”,在一战中阵亡又被赫伯特·韦斯特复活的士兵,一只来自乌撒的自恋灵猫。将这些和其他古怪的生物招入你的小队。
- 你角色的神志和精神状态将影响对话选项。精神疾病既会带来优势,也会成为阻碍。有时候在一个已经陷入疯狂的世界里变得疯狂是值得的!
- 《冥河》的信仰系统决定你的角色们如何应对新阿卡姆的扭曲现实,同时也决定他们神志恢复的速度。信仰系统还提供对话选项,拓宽角色扮演的可能性。
- 一种全新的法术系统,有时代价会比回报高。成为神秘学大师可不是动动指尖就能发射五颜六色的导弹那么简单。《冥河》的黑魔法威力巨大,但是也会消耗你的心神,你的生命,甚至有可能更多。
- 2D画面策略性回合制战斗,与经典的《魔法门之英雄无敌系列》类似。
- 在《冥河》中的挣扎不会拯救世界,因为战争已经输了。在末世中追求自己的目标:救赎、复仇或是更黑暗的东西。

Acerca del juego
En Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, el jugador emprende un periplo desde la condenada ciudad de Arkham hasta las profundidades del Abismo. Crea tu propio personaje basándote en los arquetipos de los años 20 y ábrete camino en un misterioso mundo en ruinas.
Tu desesperada lucha contra fuerzas que escapan a toda comprensión te atormentará infatigable hasta el fin. El combate cuerpo a cuerpo será todo un reto, la brujería acarreará funestas consecuencias y abominaciones desconocidas llevarán tu cordura a su punto de inflexión. Puede que a veces la mejor solución sea huir de lo que tras el umbral te aguarda.
Características:- Un mundo en 2D dibujado a mano que refleja las temáticas lovecraftianas de terror y horror cósmico.
- Enemigos, trama y escenarios inspirados en las icónicas obras originales de Lovecraft. Participa en misiones inspiradas en tus historias preferidas y observa cómo se desarrollan en función de tus propias decisiones y estilo de juego.
- Escoge entre 8 personajes principales arquetípicos, cada uno con su propio trasfondo original y especialidades.
- Contarás con la compañía de múltiples personajes pintorescos en tu infausto viaje, incluyendo al solitario “Forastero” antediluviano, un soldado caído en la Gran Guerra reanimado por Herbert West, y un gato psíquico (y narcisista) de Ulthar. Recluta a estos y otros estrafalarios seres en tu equipo.
- La cordura y el estado mental de tu personaje influirán en las opciones de los diálogos. La demencia tiene sus pros y contras. ¡Puede que convenga perder la cabeza en un mundo regido por la locura!
- El sistema de creencias de Stygian determina cómo tus personajes se enfrentan a la retorcida realidad de la nueva Arkham, así como el ritmo al que recuperan la cordura perdida. El sistema de creencias también ofrece opciones de diálogos únicas, lo que aumenta el abanico de posibilidades de la historia.
- Un nuevo tipo de sistema de hechizos que a veces implica más sacrificio que resultados. Ser un maestro de lo oculto no es tan sencillo como disparar proyectiles de colores con los dedos. La magia negra de Stygian es potente, pero podría costarte el juicio, la salud y puede que mucho más.
- Estratégicos combates por turnos en una perspectiva en 2D similar a la de la clásica serie Heroes of Might and Magic.
- En Stygian, la meta no es salvar el mundo. Esa causa ya está perdida. Busca tus propios objetivos al final del mundo. La salvación, la venganza, ¿o tal vez algo aún más siniestro?
