Greetings Lovecraftians,

As you know, our main goal for Lovecraft’s Untold Stories 2 is to deliver a top-notch game, worthy of being a sequel to the first instalment. Now don't get us wrong, we're nearly there, but after additional rounds of testing, we've received a lot of feedback regarding in-game balance and we've come to realize that we need more time to make all the necessary tweaks and changes. So in order for everyone to have the best possible experience, we’ve decided to postpone the launch, to be able to further improve the game. We will announce the new release date soon, please stay tuned.

This extra time is going to help us make a true successor to Lovecraft's Untold Stories, at the level of quality you've come to expect from us. With more than 20 hours for every playthrough and no two playthroughs ever the same, new features and new characters, it will definitely be worth the wait!



Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support for the game - and as always, please don't hesitate to post any comments or questions you have below this announcement, come to the Steam Discussions, or join our Discord server!

Behold, Lovecraftians,

Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2 is an action RPG adventure with rogue-like elements and inspired by the H. P. Lovecraft mythology and presents a brand new, dark comic graphic style… Do you dare join the fight against the Unknown?

Lovecraft’s Untold Stories 2 continues the narrative of the cult classic first game, but this time players will continue the fight against the unknown with new elements like crafting - using blueprints and resources to create consumables and even new equipment. Reunite with old acquaintances and meet new characters, explore new procedurally generated locations, defend yourself against dozens of different enemies and face off against epic bosses. But beware… Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2 is more challenging than ever before, and the tough nightmarish creatures opposing you will not give up easily!

Check out the official trailer now!

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of the infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.”

Greetings everyone,

Carlos here, CEO at Blini Games! Recently we've completed our first round of hands-on among a selected group of players. They had access to our current version, which is very close to the final one in terms of content, so we could get first feedback about Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2.

One of the most frequent questions that we have received is: What is the Sanity? And we thought that this is an interesting topic.

Sanity is a term deeply related to the world of the Cthulhu Mythos, whether we are talking about books, games, tabletop RPGs, etc.

Humankind faces great cosmic horrors that defy all logic and the reaction of disbelief, acceptance, and fear, translates into sanity loss.

In RPG games, as the characters acquire deeper knowledge of the Mythos, and understand that there is much more out there than what they thought, their minds get a bit further from actual reality.

How do we translate this into the numbers in our game?

1. Sanity is another parameter of our characters, as is speed, damage, resistance, etc.
   
2. Each character starts the game with 100% of sanity, but the amount is different for each of them, depending on how well the character relates to the Mythos. For example, the Professor is a very pragmatic individual who only believes in Science, while the Witch is more familiar with the supernatural aspects of the Universe. So the Professor’s basic Sanity is much lower than the Witch's one.
   
3. There are dozens of very powerful otherworldly artifacts and amulets in the game, which provide you with a lot of advantages, but the Gods don´t grant anything without a cost, and that comes represented with the Sanity.
   

We don't want our game to be based on hoarding the best objects to become immortal. There are no actual best objects. Amulets will be a decisive element if the player wants to get far in our game, but mixing them is the tricky part.

HOW CAN I LOSE SANITY?

Well, apart from using powerful Mythos amulets, there are other things that can make you lose sanity:

1. Facing really powerful enemies.
   
2. Activating altars of the deities. (From which you can also get very good advantages)
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Reading disturbing documents
   
4. Taking the wrong decisions in the dozens of mini-events that we have included in the game.
   

HOW CAN I RECOVER SANITY?
There are many ways to recover Sanity:

1. By reading documents that will give you a little hope
   
2. By reading a newspaper daily
   
3. By taking the right decisions in the mini-events
   
4. With the use of certain amulets
   
5. Eating chocolate!!!
   

We really hope that this throws some light to one of the most important aspects, yet hidden aspects, of our game. If you have any questions about this, don't hesitate to write a comment.

Until next time!

C.
