WTMG's Jason Palazini: "Call of Cthulhu, if nothing else, is atmospheric. It's not about cheap jump scares, it's about telling a thematic narrative with horror elements."
H.P. Lovecraft's cosmic horror influence can be seen in movies, books, and even games. Here are the best Lovecraftian video games.
If you're ready to stare into the face of the unknown, and you're looking for games you can play in the dark, you'll want to take a look at ten of the best Lovecraftian games on Steam. From RPGs to management sims to dungeon crawlers, you can find Lovecraft-inspired games in almost any genre.
Lovecraft may have been a terrible person, but he created, and inspired, some amazing work; and influenced so many horror creators of modern day.
Remove the artist from the art, as is said.
H.P Lovecraft has had a great influence on modern horror. Lets take a look at games that adapt some of H.P Lovecraft's chilling tales.
It was the one game I loved that I know is Lovecraftian. 4/5 of these games are heavily Story driven/Interactive which might not cater to a majority of gamers.
Never heard of Conarium and Moons of Madness. Added them to my wishlist for a future sale.
Only 7.5? Damn I was hoping this would do better.
Ill still play it
Yeah its a C level game with a C level budget so a 7.5 is perfect for this game, my only issue is the $60 price tag for it.
Focus Home Interactive have become my go-to for interesting, mid-level (AA) experiences. They deliver almost AAA quality, though with that inevitable jank that comes with the smaller budget. I've come to expect that, though I always leave highly engaged (Vampyr, Technomancer). This will probably hold true here.
