"It's good news for Almost Human and, more importantly, bodes well for Myth of Bleakstone, our hastily assembled attempt to cash in on the upcoming resurgence of first-person dungeon crawlers."

It's a joke that the author of the text made, a paraphrase of Legend of Grimrock?

After less than a week on digital shelves, the role-playing game has already recouped its development costs "many times over," developer Almost Human Games told Gamasutra, who added that the studio now "seems pretty secure."
Yay! :P

I know it most be a joke because my google-fu turns up nothing. And yes totally looked like a play on words. Myth - Legend .. Bleakstone - Grimrock.

Sigh... well my hopes were not to high after reading Hastily assumed. Which normally means trashy cash grab pushed out product.
