With "a streamlined command & inventory system," whatever that means.

An epic first-person adventure set in ancient Greece.

About Argonus and the Gods of Stone
From the creators of Shadowgate comes Argonus and the Gods of Stone, a first-person legendary adventure. Paying homage to the great fantasy films of the '60s and '70s, Argonus and the Gods of Stone is set within the world of ancient Greece. You are Argonus, a historian and cartographer, who awakes to find himself lost on strange shores. The Argo, famed ship of hero Jason and his Argonauts, has been pulled onto sharp rocks by a siren’s song and now lies shattered in shallow waters. When you discover the fate of your stalwart companions, you must make a deal with a goddess - Stop the blight that has taken untold lives in return for safe passage home or risk succumbing to the bedevilment that stalks this isle...

Meh, I would have expected something more in vein with their Shadowgate remake.

To paraphrase J. Jonah Jameson: Guy named Argonus winds up an island where the the Argonauts shipwrecked. What are the odds?

"Director's Cut" after a month for some reason: https://steamcommunity.com/games/699540/announcements/detail/1621788314791335104

Latest Update: Director's Cut
November 2019

Good morning! Based on your comments and suggestions, we have made a number of big changes to make for a better play experience.

Here is what we updated today!
  • A new after-credits scene. Call it a "Director's Cut" if you will. We designed and implemented a more-satisfying ending to wrap up the adventure! Even if you finished the game, you'll be able to use any saved game to play the new after-credits scene.
  • We cut back on the amount of VO in a good number actions that appeared to be unnecessary.
  • We added another tab in Settings called Advanced Settings. This will help tailor your game to your hardware specs.
  • We lowered the puzzle requirement to finish the game.
  • We fixed the beachcomber achievement.
Please keep posting comments and suggestions on the message boards!

Thanks!
