"Spooky games are best played in one of two ways: Either you turn all of the lights out in the house to set the mood, or you tackle the unknown horrors with a few friends, all of you laughing and screaming along the way. Blumhouse Games and Dublin-based studio Gambrinous are happily encouraging the latter with Eyes of Hellfire, which launches on Steam Early Access today, as it uses one of Steam's game-sharing features to let your friends in on the action."
"Eyes of Hellfire is a "co-op Gothic horror game inspired by Irish folklore," according to the official announcement, which drops five players into a dark and spooky lodge with one simple goal: escape. The group must explore, solve puzzles, and fight against malevolent hordes of demons and other spooky entities in order to progress through the lodge and escape. Players progress through the lodge via a card-based system, with cards detailing actions, helpful items, and more."
"Also, each player is inflicted with a specific "curse" that must be cured in order to escape the lodge--even if that "cure" involves betraying your group of friends somehow. Eyes of Hellfire launches today in early access on PC via Steam. The early-access roadmap provided by Blumhouse and Gambrinous has plans for new scenarios, playable characters, monsters, puzzles, and more in the coming months."
Eyes of Hellfire is a five-player cooperative Gothic horror game set in a dark lodge, inspired by Irish folklore. One purchaser can share the game with up to four friends via Steam's Friend's Pass, though guests lack meta progression and other purchaser perks. Players must explore, solve puzzles, and battle hordes of demons and entities to progress and escape. Advancement occurs through a card-based system that defines actions and items. Each player bears a unique curse that must be cured to escape, sometimes requiring betrayal. Early Access on PC launches with a roadmap adding scenarios, characters, monsters, and puzzles.
