Transcript

Be careful who you trust in this game. Your friends lie to you in this game without even realizing it. So you can't trust anyone. Play as 16th century conquistadors exploring a cursed jungle for treasure. But the longer you stay, the more the jungle starts feeding you lies. It starts small, like when your friend jumps at a sound you don't hear. But little by little, everyone hallucinates different realities, causing arguments to break out mid-expedition about which version of the jungle is real. This game is inspired by a Lovecraft novella called The Mound. So in typical Lovecraftian fashion, your biggest threat isn't the environment, it's your own mind. I'm Mildsoss, I find you sossy games. This one's called The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu. Available Now on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation with full crossplay.
