“The previous temple lies in ruins, its energy dormant, its trustworthy scattered,” explains the Steam blurb. “As the brand new grasp of those damaged halls, information a rising cult towards adversity and meddling heroes. Stability useful resource administration, building, and survival to the glory of darkish gods. Untomb forbidden information, carry out sinister rituals, and rebuild a long-forgotten sanctuary one blood-soaked stone at a time. Thus does the age of darkness start.”

Until we’re being metaphorical and speaking about dangling gibbets, or no matter.
