There are lots of weapons and incantation abilities to unlock as you explore the depths of the dungeons. Plus—it runs great on Steam Deck as well and is officially verified.

Steam’s Lovecraftian Days

The big news for the game today, in addition to its 15% off sale, is that they’re adding a new character named Florence to celebrate Steam’s Lovecraftian Days. You can see her in action in her spotlight trailer embedded above.

As a fresh character in the game, Florence has all-new visual and audio assets, including voice lines and bespoke animations. It should definitely help add some variety for players, especially in multiplayer, to mix things up a bit more.

The developers provided an excerpt from Florence’s in-universe diary to flesh out the lore a bit more as well:

“September 3rd, 1927

Born of London’s soot and fog, I scraped through life one borrowed pound at a time. When the last door closed, I turned to an American—Mr. Blackwood. A gentleman by dress, a predator by nature. He travels often, appearing where desperation festers. That’s how he found me. He offered coin with one hand and escape with the other. I took both. Foolishly.

Now the due date has passed, and his letters reek of finality. The last one was brief: “Go to Innsmouth. Devil Reef. There are ways to balance your account.”

I should’ve vanished. But desperation dulls reason. So here I am.

Innsmouth is a place rotting from the inside out. The air is thick with salt and mildew, the buildings warped and leaning, as if recoiling from what sleeps offshore. The people speak little, and when they look at me, it’s not with curiosity—but recognition. As if they’ve seen the debt before, wearing different faces.

Tomorrow at dawn, I go to Devil Reef.

Whether I return with my soul intact—or leave it on the ocean floor—depends on what the sea demands for payment.

And what I have left to give.”

Finally, today’s update also introduces a new character customization system using the Wardrobe menu, in addition to other updates like improved enemy spawning and better boss battles, alongside the usual gameplay balance improvements and some UX adjustments. Not a bad update for Steam’s Lovecraftian Days.
