[Pc Games] Ahead of the Game - Dungeons & Eldritch is a love letter to Lovecraftian horrors in the deep blue sea

[X A V I]

 

Hello and welcome to Ahead of the Game, a series where we tell you all about an upcoming game that, despite not being out yet, is available for you to play at the time of publishing. Through this series, you can grab a chance to play games well ahead of their release date, be that through Soft Launch, Open Beta, Demos, or more.

Not a lot of games can perfectly encapsulate what they're all about from the title alone, but with Dungeons & Eldritch, you get exactly what it says on the tin. It's really all about the eldritch monsters and the dungeons you find them in, with epic gear you can loot from every Lovecraftian horror you slay. 

And that's not exactly a bad thing - sometimes, all you really want to do at the end of a long and tiring day is to unleash your wrath on hellish fiends using your mighty axe or your legendary sword to unwind. 

Here, you get some extra eye candy with the meticulously designed cosmetics you can buff your character with, and each piece of armour you put on can be flaunted and flexed while you're out roaming the depths of the dungeons for more ancient beasts to eliminate. 

The monsters themselves are jaw-dropping - they might just instil the fear of eternal damnation in you with the way they're intricately crafted. It might feel overwhelming when they first swarm around you as soon as you step inside a dungeon, but thankfully, you've got your own unstoppable kit - with customisable builds and really cool skill trees - to take them down with ease.
