Today WhisperGames has partnered with indie game studio Black Voyage Games to release Lost In The Open, a brutal, plot-driven roguelike tactical RPG, coming to PC and Steam Deck later this year.
Black Voyage Games’ debut title blends strategic combat, resource management, and survival mechanics into a moody, low-fantasy world. The international team consists of a former Toca Boca developer, a Mexico-based art director, the composer of Parkour Legends, and a 2D animator with experience working with Japanese game studios, all united by a passion for deep, punishing gameplay and unforgettable atmosphere.

Staying alive means choosing wisely
Lost in the Open takes place in a gritty medieval world, where players take control of King Nrvesk, the target of a failed assassination. Accompanied only by two of his loyal bodyguards, he must escape across a vast procedurally generated overworld as he is pursued relentlessly by enemy forces. Players will face tense battles, branching events, and meaningful choices. To survive, they will need to recruit wisely, fight desperately, and repent for Nrvesk’s bloody past.
This is not your run-of-the-mill survival hack-and-slash either. Every choice you make will affect the outcome of your campaign. Every playthrough will be different. You never know if that distant light in the forest will be a merry band of merchants keen to share their wares, a bloodthirsty band of opportunistic thieves, or something far more sinister…
