Creative Director at Brass Token, Mike Skupa recently took a deep dive into what makes the upcoming cosmic horror action-adventure game The Chant an experience you won’t want to miss when it launches this fall.
The game’s story takes place on Glory Island, where after a botched ritual at a remote spiritual retreat, a force called The Gloom is unleashed throughout the island to feed off negative energy. As Jess, you must fight, avoid, and harness this supernatural threat as it drives everyone to madness.
Fight or flight is crucial to survival as you balance resources, spiritual weapons, and abilities against the creatures and cultists that emerge from The Gloom.
Main Features:
- Mind, Body, and Spirit are indispensable to your well-being. The actions you take affect the balance between them and determine how the story of The Chant concludes.
- Collect, craft, and unlock the mysteries of the past while surviving the various threats both in and out of The Gloom.
- Fight or flight is crucial to survival as you balance resources, spiritual weapons, and abilities against the creatures and cultists that emerge from The Gloom.
The Chant is developed by Brass Token and published by Prime Matter.
