The first in a planned anthology series,Underworld Dreams: The False King is a tale of Dark Cosmic Horror from a one-man studio based in Barcelona
Published by Skystone Games and created by the one-man dev studio Drop of Pixel, Underworld Dreams: The False King is coming to Nintendo Switch™ and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store later this spring. Underworld Dreams: The False King is the first game in the forthcoming horror anthology series Underworld Dreams.
Based on the works of HP Lovecraft (and Robert W. Chambers’ The King in Yellow) and set in the 1980s, Underworld Dreams: The False King tells the story of a man who has tracked down his missing brother to a seemingly abandoned building that hides something much more sinister behind its decrepit walls.
Built from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch™, Underworld Dreams draws upon the roots of the horror gaming genre. Prepare to dig into the mysteries of the occult and solve puzzles while constantly looking over your shoulder. Ancient forces are at work in this abandoned church, and only you can unlock the secrets of what doom is to come. Ammo and health are limited, there’s no telling what enemies you’ll face.
