changedClever Imp:The game will launch with 7 characters to control, 6 unique locations and a sandbox mode of gameplay.

changedClever Imp:This is of course not the end of this epic story, the Overlords will continue to develop the project past this date but they want to do it alongside you. A Demonic Cooperation Programme is how they frame it - you play the game Master, provide your feedback and the Overlords shall try to make those wishes a reality, whilst at the same time they will continue expanding on the amount of maps, characters and the narrative.

changedClever ImpAs the Overlords continue forging the narrative, completing the Early Access plotline for now will unlock a sandbox mode, in which you can deploy your ghastly minions to any of the previously visited locations and take full advantage of their skills as you try to outmaneuver those pesky humans!

changedPesky Imp…anyway Master, if you have questions about Ghost Keeper join our Discord Server. You will find other Keepers learning the craft there, as well as the Overlords themselves, who will be happy to share updates and talk to you directly.

Neat deal, right?

Pesky Imp

Indeed Clever! We, creatures of the underworld are a progressive society, we discuss, vote and act on the wishes of the many! We take pride in working together to..

Clever Imp

Oh, can it, Pesky! Yes, we’re here to serve you Master and whatever you say shall be heard and acted upon. The humans are a menace and we need all of the brain power to finally get rid of them!

Just to clarify what you can expect of the Early Access version of the game Master:

Ghost Keeper is a narrative-driven single player experience. You will be able to play through an engaging story in 6 unique locations which serve as complex and long missions, with a set of updating objectives that need to be completed to progress forward. A step-by-step tutorial will ease you into the ways of the Keeper as you learn how to best use the monsters’ skills over the environment and its human inhabitants.

As the Overlords continue forging the narrative, completing the Early Access plotline for now will unlock a sandbox mode, in which you can deploy your ghastly minions to any of the previously visited locations and take full advantage of their skills as you try to outmaneuver those pesky humans!

Pesky Imp

That was a beautiful summary Clever! I could have not said it better!

Clever Imp

No, you could have not!

Clever and Pesky Imps

See you very, very soon!

Best regards,
