Indie solo developer Alessandro Guzzo announced today that the Lovecraftian horror adventure The Alien Cube will be published on Steam on October 14th. A spiritual successor to Guzzo’s previous game, The Land of Pain, The Alien Cube sees you play as Arthur, the nephew of The Land of Pain‘s protagonist.
Arthur is a lonely man whose life is about to change drastically when strange events start to occur after finding out about the disappearance of your uncle, Edgar. The world you live in is intertwined with a terribly secret, dark, and occult reality in which your uncle seemed to have played an important role. Tormented by nightmarish visions, you will need to embark on a journey to seek out the truth and survive the darkness that is haunting you.
A disturbing reality is about to be unveiled: secrets forbidden to mankind older than the Earth itself…
