Warhammer modder's new strategy RPG Whispers Of The Eyeless is Darkest Dungeon, but you're running the dungeon

It is hammier than a hamster eating a ham sandwich in Hamburg during a performance of Hamlet. It starts with “The Whispers [of the Eyeless] call to me!!!” and does not improve from there. Beyond that, colour me fairly enthused. Other inspirations includeLoop Hero, Children Of Morta and Polish folklore at large. “Defeated, exiled and nearly forgotten, the Dead Gods have been silent for generations. But finally… the Whispers have returned....
