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.
Frogwares, the developer of Lovecraftian investigative horror adventure The Sinking City, has obtained full publishing rights for its game.
Good for them. Sinking City was an odd game for me. Tons of jank and filler, and poorly tacked-on combat and character upgrades, but decent writing and stories that were compelling enough to make me finish the game.
It feels like it wants to be a point-and-click adventure game, but got shoehorned into an open-world RPG.
Good game. Not bad, not great. I'm still waiting for an amazing Cthulu game. Call of Cthulu by Cyanide/Focus Home got the tone and setting right, but just didn't deliver enough in other areas.
One day, eventually.
we never will now in this current climate. HP Lovecraft is taboo amongst the major players. Shame too cuz all his stories would make killer side quests in an open world adventure about the great old ones.
Rather than DLC a sequel that built on everything that worked and polished the bits that didn't would be ideal. There was a lot to like about the first game and it'd be a great base for a follow up with improved combat etc.
Feels like the game is a bit old for DLC, I can imagine them grafting on it and nobody buying it.
Tis the season to be spooky, and so Rogueliker has gathered together a collection of roguelikes and roguelites that have fun being scary.
We've endured the purest terror in all of gaming in order to bring you this terrifying list of horror roguelikes.
Disappointed to see Bloodborne not on the list.
Never heard of Conarium and Moons of Madness. Added them to my wishlist for a future sale.
Bloodborne.
I always think of bloodborne as a good Halloween lovecraftian game.
