[h3]Share Your Thoughts and Help Build Whispers of the Eyeless[/h3][hr][/hr]Indie games live and die by word of mouth, and on Steam, that means reviews. Share your thoughts, whether negative or positive. We believe firmly in listening to the community and leaving a review does more than share your thoughts — it helps more players discover the game, keeps the Dead Gods fed, and ensures Aranthor remains a city worth corrupting.

Now here is our roadmap for 2025.



Aranthor wasn’t built in a day, and no cult rises alone. Whether you’re sharing strategies, discussing lore, or swapping stories of triumphant victories (or catastrophic failures), our community hubs are where it all unfolds.

Join us to connect with fellow cult leaders, trade theories, and stay up to date with the latest updates, patches, and content drops. The Dead Gods may be silent, but you don’t have to be.

Whispers of the Eyeless: A Prophet's Primer
Whispers of the Eyeless is a dark fantasy strategy RPG where you build a cult, unleash divine powers, and endure psychological trials. Command disciples, outwit enemies in tactical turn-based battles, and determine the fate of Aranthor as you awaken the Dead Gods — Wrath, Desire, and Madness.

Tactical Turn-Based Combat: Every move matters in the brutal conflicts of Aranthor. Plan your actions carefully, as both health and sanity hang by a thread. The art reflects the psychological toll and the high stakes of every encounter.

Cult Management: The Hall of the Faithful lets you oversee your disciples. Manage their health, sanity, and traits as you send them on missions to expand your influence and fulfill the will of the Dead Gods.

Dungeon Exploration: Events like 'The Office' test your resolve and strategy. Will you meditate to regain sanity, or press forward for greater rewards? Every choice alters your disciples' fate and the resources you command.

Fate’s Mirror: Roguelite Challenges: In Fate’s Mirror, cultists are tested against randomized scenarios. Unlock shards that reshape the game with new modifiers, powers, and playstyles, ensuring no two runs are ever the same.

Base Building & Customization: The Sanctum, your ever-expanding bastion of power in Aranthor. Upgrade rooms like the Reliquary to craft cursed relics or the Hall of Faith to train disciples. Your choices shape its layout and functionality, but every expansion risks exposure to the Living Gods—especially in Fate’s Mirror, where strategic upgrades play a crucial role in roguelite runs.

Handcrafted Art: The hand-drawn art brings Aranthor’s decay and desperation to life. Bold, intricate visuals enhance the game’s roguelite loop, ensuring every run feels uniquely tied to the city’s haunting atmosphere. The details—etched in shadow and light—immerse you in the grim world of Wrath, Desire, and Madness.
