There’s no escaping the nightmare for Bloody Disgusting’s Mike Wilson, thanks to the launch of Cthulhu’s Reach: Devil Reef‘s Act II. The Lovecraftian action-roguelike co-op dungeon crawler from developer The Fine Arc and publisher First Break Labs continues its horrific journey through the mysteries of the cult-infested town of Innsmouth as the desperate and indebted look for a rumored treasures amid the shores of Devil Reef. Driven by the very definite threats of gangster Mr. Blackwood, fortune-seekers must brave the uncertain and unknown before them to find a way out of their predicament.
The scant bit of good news in the labyrinthine hell is that investigators and treasure-hunters won’t need to work alone, with the game supporting four-player co-op to aid in the exploration of Devil Reef’s ruinous secrets. Structural destruction and arcane spells are also at hand to thwart the local cult’s attempts at driving off explorers – and they’ll want as many advantages as you can grab as they plumb the depths of Hydra’s Hollow.
Act II of Cthulhu’s Reach: Devil Reef sees players descend even further into Hydra’s Hollow, exploring an ever-expanding realm with new corridors and new creatures. You’ll be taking on Mother Hydra, a grotesque boss inspired by classic Lovecraftian mythos. To get to her, you’ll need to brave magma-laden caverns and halt the terrors conjured by the Esoteric Priests’ dark rituals.
