Call of Cthulhu®

The game is based on Lovecraft's stories, and I found it worthy of the author's fame. The story is very engaging with 3 multiple endings based on your choices throughout the game, it has very few jump scares and you will not play only as Pierce, but also as other characters The only flaw: although I would have preferred a better look at Cthulhu, he appears for a fraction of a second, not enough to admire the developers' work. But I highly recommend it.

Кривоватая, но очень атмосферная... интерактивная книга. ​ Формально, это игра от первого лица​, где надо много говорить с людьми, находить улики, пару раз стелсить и один раз стрелять. Нуарный детектив в сеттинге Лавкрафта, но именно как игра это проходняк. Если идти в Call ot Ctulhu исключительно за геймплеем и графикой, это будет очень плохо. Но если идти в игру за сюжетом, озвучкой и райтингом — вот это будет топ. Сценарий не является прямой производной от рассказов Лавкрафта, но скорее комбинирует идеи автора. В итоге получается крепкий такой, но фанфик, со всеми вытекающими. Главные персонажи очаровательные, второстепенные -- милые картонки, и те, и другие неглубокие. Но интересно все равно. ​ ​В игре есть простейшая ролевая система, где прокачка ГГ влияет на доступные опции в диалогах и иногда помогает лучше анализировать предметы/раны/книги/воссоздавать цепочки событий. Все геймплейные механики очень простые, но, опять же, для интерактивной книги это самое то, чтобы не застревать на одном месте, но двигаться по сюжету. <...> полный текст в ТГ: https://t.me/gonzocalls/319

Call of Cthulhu is a great game that nails the dark, oppressive atmosphere you’d expect from a Lovecraftian mystery. The difficulty is balanced just right, providing a solid challenge without becoming frustrating. One of the strongest points is the cast; the characters are excellent and have very distinct, characteristic personalities that make every encounter memorable. While the story does get a little confusing toward the end, that is almost expected from a Cthulhu title where reality is meant to be questioned. I did find that the dialogue choices don't make as significant a difference throughout the game as I initially hoped, but it is still very interesting to weigh your options and choose between them. Since the game is relatively short, it never overstays its welcome, making it easy to play through multiple times to experience the different endings. Overall, it is a great experience for anyone looking for a solid investigative horror game.

Buen juego, se lo recomendaría a mi amigo Santiago pero seguro se quejaría de que no te puedes ligar a la entidad cósmica jeje esta bien loco ese w que le pasa, pero dejando eso de lado 9/10 sáquenle secuela en Tepito

невозможно поиграть, игра постоянно крашится и все. смысл покупать?-непонятно

I really wish this game was better. I love Lovecraftian horror, and this game delivers most of the time. However it's bogged down by too many shallow mechanics that don't add anything. And while I wasn't stupid enough to expect a final boss fight against Cthulhu, but I was at least expecting a good look at him! We see him for half a second during a lightning strike 3 seconds before the credits roll. The atmosphere in this game is genuinely incredible, but the gameplay is an utter mess and the ending is super underwhelming. I want to like this game, and I don't think it's bad. Just not great, nor what I was looking for. It's a 2/5 for me, though I do think it's worth a shot if you lower your expectations and it's on sale.
