A classical point'n click quest in "Lovecraftian" style: enchanting and horrifying in ones. Would you retrieve the truth behind the murder of Mr.Clark? Could you avoid the Darkness which is lurking around every corner? Is that all real or just a product of your (in)sanity? Time to found this out.

One of the best horror adventure games I've played. The plot it's great and full of twists, the puzzles are challenging, and the whole investigative aspect of it having to inspect documents and all it's very well done.

April 2024

I recommend but, with a guide. I played on normal and there was a lot of info and sometimes it can be confusing what to underline. Not to mention you go back and forth to some locations several times. It IS an older game so patience is needed but honestly, had a lot more fun with a friend who had the guide to keep us from getting stuck because sometimes you're not sure what you're meant to notice.

Excellent game! I was absorbed into the story the whole time, the graphics are very good for the time and it really captures Lovecraft´s essence. I think these games are like therapy, they help you discover parts of your own mind and thoughts while exploring and digging into the clues and advancing through the story. I highly recommend it.

Dec. 2023

It's a weird game with often weird puzzles that doesn't make much sense until you play the sequel. And yet I enjoyed it. Not as good as the studio's later game Conarium (which I consider the best Lovecraftian video game), but you can see some of the threads that led there. If you like puzzle games and Lovecraftian fiction, it's worth a play.
