Have You Played Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners Of The Earth?

2019-08-20 06:30 UTC · Rock, Paper, Shotgun · contact@rockpapershotgun.com (Dave Irwin)

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth was one of the first attempts to put H.P.Lovecraft’s Cthulhu mythos in game form. It’s definitely not the first (point-and-click adventure Shadow Of The Comet predates it significantly). However, it’s the first one to truly get the horror element of Lovecraft’s writing in at least one or two moments. (more…)

New Call of Cthulhu gameplay trailer reveals an assortment of unearthly horrors

2018-09-21 16:40 UTC · Eurogamer

Cyanide Interactive has unveiled a new gameplay trailer for its upcoming Lovecraft-inspired horror RPG Call of Cthulhu. When we last saw the game in action, Cyanide offered an extended look at its atmospheric opening hour, setting the scene for its central investigation - which sees hard-drinking private detective Edward Pierce attempting to solve several mysterious deaths in the halls of Hawkins Manor, situated on the gloomy island of Darkwater Island, Massachusetts. This time around, however, Cyanide teases a couple of sequences from much later in the game, delving, as the developer puts it,

Lovecraftian horror RPG Call of Cthulhu shows off a full hour of gameplay

2018-09-10 21:04 UTC · Eurogamer

Developer Cyanide has hit the record button and proffered up a full hour of gameplay from its forthcoming Lovecraft-inspired horror RPG, Call of Cthulhu. Cyanide's Call of Cthulhu (not to be confused with the other Lovecraft game in the works, Frogwares' The Sinking City) is the official video game adaptation of publisher Chaosium's much-loved classic pen and paper RPG. As such, it prioritises deduction and detective work over guns and combat - after all, the series sensibly reasons, a pistol likely wouldn't be much help against a formless elder being from beyond space and time. Call of Cthulh

Here's the first gameplay trailer for Call of Cthulhu, the other new Lovecraft video game

2018-08-23 22:10 UTC · Eurogamer

Earlier this week, developer Frogwares shared more of its open-world, Lovecraft-inspired detective adventure The Sinking City, and it's looking more and more promising with each new peek. However, it's not the only Lovecraft video game on the horizon - there's also publisher Focus Interactive's Call of Cthulhu, which has now received its very first gameplay trailer. Call of Cthulhu is, as its name implies, the official video game adaptation of the much-loved classic pen and paper RPG - and, interestingly enough, was originally being worked on by Frogwares before behind-the-scenes shenanigans s

Doom-haunted Call of Cthulhu game finally gets a release date

2018-07-19 09:23 UTC · Eurogamer

If you're partial to mountains of madness or things on doorsteps, this is your year. Cyanide's Call of Cthulhu adaptation will release on 30th October for PC, Xbox One and PS4, publisher Focus Home Interactive has announced. Charmingly subtitled "The Official Video Game", the adaptation has had a rough time in development - it began life back in 2014 at Adventures of Sherlock Holmes studio Frogwares, known and feared for its teleporting Watson, only to fetch up in Cyanide's hands after a reported two years of inactivity. Of course, it won't be a proper HP Lovecraft adaptation unless everybody

The 25 Best Horror Games On PC

2015-07-27 18:00 UTC · Rock, Paper, Shotgun · contact@rockpapershotgun.com (Adam Smith)

Below you will find the 25 best horror games ever released on PC. To ensure the list was as accurate as possible, the compiler was locked in a dark cellar with a copy of every game in existence and a computer capable of running them all. Two weeks later, the following article was found written on the walls in blood (the postscript was recorded on an audiolog). The writer was nowhere to be seen. …
