Find the truth in It Comes Out
Indie studio BrewWhale has opened registration for the upcoming playtest It's Breaking Out on Steam. Interested players can visit the game's official store page and select “Request Access” to be notified when the developer begins inviting new members. The playtest offers an early look at a dark card roguelike filled with cosmic horror and ancient secrets.
It's Breaking Out clearly takes inspiration from the works of Lovecraft, combining psychological tension with unpredictable game systems. At its core, the game revolves around creating unique decks while embracing uncertainty. Dice replace traditional mana systems, turning every turn into a calculated risk where fortune and disaster exist side by side. Each run encourages experimentation, allowing players to explore countless scenarios and strategies that evolve with each roll.
Bones play a central role in combat and progression. Players roll to activate cards and cast spells, never quite sure whether the result will result in survival or chaos. This constant play reinforces the themes of madness, fate, and forces beyond human control.
At the center of the story is an ancient box discovered deep among forgotten ruins. Covered in strange symbols and bound with heavy chains, it seems designed to contain something desperate to escape. Legends describe it as a ward meant to protect the world from the presence sealed within. While such stories may seem like harmless folklore, the truth behind the box is much older and much more disturbing.
Through its mechanics and story, It's Breaking Out strives to create an experience where curiosity, fear and chance are inseparable, challenging players to slowly uncover a horror that refuses to remain under control.
