Call of Cthulhu Critic Reviews
View All (142 total)Call of Cthulhu's engaging mystery and intriguing utilization of RPG mechanics make it one of the more enjoyable Lovecraftian games in years.
A mediocre detective game with predictable stealth and a surreal story that runs out of steam near the end.
A spirited attempt to adapt Lovecraft's mythos, but while it overcomes the low budget when it comes to atmosphere the overly simplistic gameplay drags it down.
A slow and frustrating burn that culminates in a big and satisfying way
