Call of Cthulhu®

I feel that to understand and truly enjoy the game you have to be at least somewhat familiar with H.P. Lovecraft's ethos and writing. Many say that the story of the game is unpolished and rough around the edges, which isn't necessarily wrong, yet I would argue that it brings it a certain Lovecraftian aspect. You play as detective Pierce, a private detective from Boston who is hired by the father of the recently deceased Sara Hawkins. He bids you go to the island where she used to live with her family, and uncover what happened to her. As you play the game, you are subject to a plethora of mysterious and unexplainable happenings. Things quickly turn towards the occult, and the game becomes more about delving deeper into the mystery while trying to keep your sanity intact (or perhaps not). One drawback of the game I would like to point out is that some stats such as strength and eloquence do not come into play as much as investigation and find hidden. I would prefer if there were more options for that, but this is a finished game already. I also feel that there aren't enough consequences for your choices, and, having replayed certain parts of the game, I noticed that in a great number of encounters, choices don't matter. It is only later in the game where you can communicate in a different language that the choices begin mattering. Furthermore, more endings to this would be amazing. I don't think that the 4 endings are representative of all the things that could have happened in the game. Besides my critiques, I thoroughly enjoyed the game, and would recommend it to any Lovecraft enthusiast, or anyone who is even remotely interested in such occult and otherworldly mysteries.

Отличная игра для погружения мрачной атмосферы.

Alguém pode me ajudar num probleminha? Meu jogo tá crachando assim que inicio o jogo, não consigo jogar :/

Там на дне есть вещи, хуже страшных снов Лавкрафта...

Jogaço da porra, típico jogo focado em história que realmente te envolve e entrega uma gameplay cheia de coisas que dependem do seu estilo de resolver as coisas.

Coole Story und einfache Mechanik. Würde ich jederzeit empfehlen

Pretty good for what it was. Wish we got more time with the characters and Darkwater (learning it's history through interacting), but I enjoyed the ride. The story can be confusing, but it's a Lovecraftian tale so unreliable narrators comes with that. It's a VERY linear story though, so keep that in mind in case you want to do more exploring and clue-finding before going anywhere near the chapter goals.
