Call of Cthulhu® Reviews

Solid game, good story, and fun mechanics. Felt a little too short, but I also binge games so that's almost certainly on me. Highly reccommend.

Good game! for the H.P. Lovecraft lovers, this game will be a blast!

A very nice mystery detective game with a horror vibe. Definitely recommend it if this is your genre. However, I didn't get the story completely in the end, especially what the role of the protagonist was in all of it. There is one annoying action passage in the game that needs to be finished by using a specific item that can be overlooked easily. Otherwise, the game is easy to finish.

If you love mystery then try this game. But don't expect too much from it. It is a 20 dollar horror game with good graphics and systems and story. It is far above many horror games of the same price. It does have issues however, such as a bad intro, heavy handed story that hurts the mystery of the game, and poor collision.

jogo de custo bem baixo e com alguns puzzles/investigações bem fáceis, mas excelente pra se jogar caso queira revivenciar uma história de H.P Lovecraft ou até mesmo se introduzir no universo

I got this game 10/20/2020 at the time it was a good game for the most part. i play for about an hour or so. Fast forward to 4/12/2025 I decided to finish the game. Problem is the game crashes before I can even play for 3 minutes. I tried re-installing the game, new save files and other things to troubleshoot. Nothing helped. To be blunt, I requested a refund, that is how bad the crashes are. Save yourself time and money. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

Great atmosphere and just what you expect this lovecraftian game to be. Thumbs up for the setting, music and style. Facial & character animations are the real horrific part of this game... Just close your eyes and listen to the voice acting instead ! The other downside I see might come from the linear aspect of the game. But they are a few key choices that will indeed influence the very end. Overall, an enjoyable experience for a bit more of 10h play. For any true believer, you must answer the call of Cthulhu... !

I want to begin with saying that to me, this game was mediocre. It was not terrible, nor was it great. I am giving it a thumbs down because there is no option to say "meh". The reason I think that this game is not very great is because I have tried to play this multiple times. Once on XBOX, and twice on the PC. I've gotten further into the story each time, but as of right now, I have not completed the game, and while I may revisit trying it again, at this point I am satisfied with leaving it as is. By default, I like Lovecraftian/cosmic horror as a genre. I've read and played many different versions, and kinds of these and I definitely appreciate the work put into this game. It has all of the hallmarks of the stories I love. But it's execution really frustrates me. It's a very clunky game to play on both console and PC, and that's probably my main point against it because it's bad enough that it detracts from the whole experience itself for me. Unlike Skyrim and The Sinking City (with glitches that almost make it endearing or laughable), this alone makes every attempt to play frustrating. I also don't really get sucked into the story like I have in other games, certainly not to the point where I feel like the glitches are worth putting up with. There's a lot of lore, mystery, and worldbuilding in this game, and yet I don't feel compelled to move the story along nearly as much as I have in other games. There is also something odd about this game in that it really makes me anxious; whether that's from the glitches and clunkiness or simply the background sounds I have no idea. It's simply another reason I don't find myself wanting to play. If you enjoy this genre of games, and you don't mind the potential for glitches or the frustration of working with the mechanics, I would say this game is worth buying at full price, and if you see it on sale, it would be worth it to try.

This is a great horror game, but it loses a lot of what makes it interesting on future playthroughs. Still, It's worth checking out.

Currently it's one of the best lovecraftian games. The story is pretty linear but you may receive different results depending on your character's abilities. This game has unique atmosphere of despair and madness, and this is a good tale to be told.
