Hello, Mountaineers of Eldritch Horrors! In this second entry, we’ll know more about the coined currency you earn the more you interact with the mountain: the Eyes.
Either to learn more about the mountain and its character’s secrets, or to offer it to an unknown deity in order to face the horror with less challenge, the EYES will be the way.
DIFFICULTY AND REVELATIONS
Making your way to the mountain top, you’ll notice greenish bubbles floating around the levels, which also appear by defeating enemies or looting corpses.
As an explorer of the horrid unknown, as you interact with your surroundings, the more you’ll get to *see* the ever-growing horrors of the Mountain. The more you’ve seen… it is EYES you gain!
The Mountain will react to your level of Eyes, as you accumulate the little green eye-bubbles, the more it’ll begin to reveal its truest twisted nature: enemies will be more hostile, the levels will turn and twist into a horrid nightmare.
Something that is revealed before your eyes and once unseen it can’t be unseen… Or can’t it?
THE STATUE OF OFFERINGS
Little is known about this statue when you arrive. But is it ominously there. The Hooded One, a mysterious man of a somber demeanor, hints at the usage of said statue at the beginning of the game: it is a place of offerings.
And what little you have to offer but the knowledge you have gathered?
Its intricate design reveals and darkens the symbolism it holds. On one hand, it points to a culture whose twisted perception built a convoluted effigy, to which offer the Eyes, in the hopes of navigating the Mountain in a less hostile environment.
But on the other hand, what do the symbols around it stand for? And who precisely is receiving all those offerings. And even more unsettling, with what end does this unknown entity engulf the precious Eyes?
Get ready to unveil the mysteries surrounding the Eyes (quite literally) and answer the Mountain’s Call when we release the game later this year!
