Anderson II: The Rise of R'lyeh Trailer

A trailer for an interesting game called Anderson II: The Rise of R'lyeh is up on Youtube. It seems to be a sequel to the little known Anderson & The Legacy of Cthulhu which appeared in 2007. The original installment starred Robert D. Anderson, an investigator in WWII era Germany who ventured to Europe in an effort to understand his strange origins. It was an amateur video game by JoWood Productions and Home Grown Games. The game combined an investigative and adventure-shooter atmosphere in a three dimensional environment.

Details are scant about the sequel so far. A website is featured here, but no information is posted on it except for a logo at the present time. However, the trailer below offers some tantalizing hints about what players can look forward to in The Rise of R'lyeh. It looks like it's set in contemporary times, and will explore the often mentioned but little realized scenario of Cthulhu bursting into our world after the proper alignment of the cosmos. Look for further details to surface on their website as the production nears release sometime next year.
