QUByte Interactive are dipping into Lovecraftian horror with their newly-announced title from Flying Jack Studios in Lighthouse of Madness. Announced for PlayStation, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam (with a demo already available), Lighthouse of Madness is described as first-person single-player adventure that, as expected, leans heavily into psychological horror.
Inspired by the Lovecraftian mythology, you assume the role of one Dorian Cannon, a lighthouse keeper responsible for repairing and implementing new autonomous systems in old lighthouses. During one of your assigned jobs, you’re tasked to bring the lighthouse keepers back to the continent. But when you arrive at the location, you realize that something isn’t right.
You find yourself on an island in the Innsmouth region with a big lighthouse and an abandoned mine. You must explore the map, enter the buildings and solve puzzles to progress. All the while, you must try not to let the madness take over while you search for answers as to what happened in this mysterious place.
Armed with your flashlight and a switchblade, you must figure out how to get to the lighthouse while trying to discover just what was in that mine. And what happened to the other lighthouse keepers? The secrets on the island probably should have remained as such.
No release date has been announced as of yet, but again, check out the demo for Lighthouse of Madness on Steam.
