Halloween Demo Broadcast

Fellow scholars of all things forbidden!

"Dagon: by H. P. Lovecraft" turned out to be very successful, with over 1,700,000 downloads on Steam and 95% positive reviews. When the war broke out in Ukraine, we decided to donate all of our proceeds generated by the game and DLCs to humanitarian aid organisations, such as Voices of Children.

To thank the players for their support in this endeavour and all the positive responses, we've decided to create a brand new DLC - What The Moon Brings.

Today it premieres on consoles as a timed exclusive, together with the base game and all the DLCs, in the eldritch form of Dagon: Complete Edition. You can get it in the official shops:

If you're a console player, consider grabbing a copy! And to answer a question we've been often asked on our social media: if you prefer to game on PC, we plan to release What The Moon Brings there as well at some point in the future.

We've always received a lot of support from this community, even before the initial launch, when we gathered feedback to improve the first raw versions, so thank you and hope you'll like the new DLC!

We're excited to announce that we've partnered with Feardemic (publisher of games like Papetura and Stasis: Bone Totem) to release Dagon: Complete Edition for Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4/5 and Xbox One/Series!



Dagon: Complete Edition features all the released DLCs, including a brand new console-exclusive DLC: What The Moon Brings 🌔 that we've been working on in the past few months!

If you're on X, we'd appreciate spreading the word by retweeting! 👈🖤

Stay tuned as we continue working on our Steam releases now that Dagon: CE is ready to ship!

Hey everyone, we wanted to share a positive milestone today!

More than 50,000$ (or 200,000 zlotys, for our fellow Poles out there) collected for charity



We debuted Dagon in 2021 as a narrative experiment and our first non-comissioned game. It became a significant success, and as of the latest transfer, together with you - players from all over the world - we have collected over PLN 200,000 / 50,000$ for charity (organisations such as the Polish Red Cross, Polish Humanitarian Action, Save the Children, or Voices Of Children)! Thank you!

We've also crossed 1,700,000 downloads, which is kinda crazy.

All DLCs on sale

All Dagon DLCs are currently discounted, so if you'd like to join our charity endeavours, you can grab them on sale (100% of net proceeds are donated to charity):

Until next time!

Asmodeus called to let us know that the demo for Mercyful Flames is now out!



The game is a dark documentary based on the classic movie Häxan, and delves into the history of devils and witches. It will only be available during Steam Next Fest (till 17th June), so don't miss your chance to delve into the diabolic arts!

One of the main inspirations behind MF is Dagon, so if you enjoyed our adaptation of the cult H. P. Lovecraft story, there's a high chance this collaboration between Bit Golem (publisher) and Asmodev (developer) will be right up your alley.



Tha Asmodev Team would really appreciate your feedback, so feel free to drop it here on on the game's Steam forum. Thanks!
