When I say H.P. Lovecraft, you immediately think of Cthulhu? Right? What if I told you Lovecraft mentioned Cthulhu only in Mountains of madness? Almost everything else you read about the Cthulhu mythos is a community project? This is a shining example of what the community can do. Countless fan fiction that adds to the mythos. Which is another reason I like the Cthulhu mythos, there are so many possibilities. Building on this mythos, is a game at GOG that is Linux compatible. It can be yours for the low-low price of $30, ouch! What? | When I say H.P. Lovecraft, you immediately think of Cthulhu? Right?

- | The adventure is set in the town of Arkham. I’m the Batman! - No, not that Arkham. Here the town is a 1920’s-type town (or shall I say Victorian era?) that is also trapped in another dimension. As with most of the Cthulhu mythos, this story revolves around your sanity. So, it is no wonder the story starts with you in bed, and a creepy character watches you sleep. You follow this character into the shadier parts of town. Until the ‘shrooms kick in and you start seeing things. Okay now.... | + | Site Web : https://www.gog.com/ |

- | Like with most role-play games, you need a character. You can choose from eight pre-made ones, or you can roll your own. The nice thing about this character creation mechanism is that you get to choose things like age, and it has an effect. Backgrounds are not just for show either, they too have an effect.

Et si je vous disais que Lovecraft n'a mentionné Cthulu que dans Mountains of madness ? Presque tout le reste que vous lisez à propos du Mythe de Cthulu est un projet de la communauté. C’est un exemple parfait de ce que peut faire une communauté. Des fanfictions innombrables |
- | Graphics and sound: | + | Voyons voir si le jeu porte bien son prix. |
- | The art style seems hand drawn (maybe?), and the world seems hand-crafted. The only thing that had no consistency was the portraits, though they gave a 1920’s feel. The style had me thinking that the game was a visual novel in the beginning and retains the comic book feel throughout. The voice acting is on the money. There just seems to be a shortage of it. The music and atmospheric sounds fit the game like a glove. Very immersive, to say the least. | + | **Story: |

+ | Histoire : | ||
+ | |||
+ | L’aventure se passe dans la ville d’Arkham. Je suis Batman ! Mais non, ce n’est pas cet Arkham-là. Ici, la ville est une ville du genre des années 1920 (ou devrais-je dire de l’ère victorienne ?) qui est également emprisonnée dans une autre dimension. Comme c’est le cas pour la majeure partie du Mythe de Cthulu, l’essence de l’histoire est l’état de votre santé mentale. Ainsi, ce n’est pas surprenant que, quand l’histoire démarre, vous êtes au lit alors qu’un personnage sinistre vous regarde dormir. Vous suivez ce personnage dans les endroits louches de la ville, jusqu’à ce que les champignons entrent en jeu et vous commencez à halluciner. Bon, maintenant... | ||

There are some bugs, as the game is quite new. The forums have things like giving a party member something and not being able to get it back. That said, the story seems great (I say seems as I have not finished it yet), the dialogue seems to drive the story, and not every outcome is favourable. Again this makes you think about your choices, unlike other games where you can go through all the choices. The way the dialogue is structured, I suspect there are multiple endings. Character creation options are plentiful and once you have played, you will realise why. You may even be stuck there for a while. 1C is known for their “war” games, and this makes a welcome change. $30 in local monies is a bit much, so I will wait for a sale. | There are some bugs, as the game is quite new.

+ | Il y a quelques bogues, car le jeu n’est qu’à ses débuts. Dans le forums, on lit des trucs comme, quand on donne quelque chose à un membre du parti, on ne peut pas le récupérer. Cela étant dit, l’histoire semble géniale (je dis semble, car je ne l’ai pas encore terminée), on a l’impression que les dialogues font progresser l’histoire et les résultats ne sont pas toujours favorables. À nouveau, cela vous oblige à réfléchir à vos choix ; ce n’est pas comme dans d’autres jeux où vous pouvez essayer tous les choix, l'un après l’autre. D’après la façon dont les dialogues sont structurés, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ce jeu est essentiel pour les fans de jeux de rôle, d’énigmes et de Cthulhu. Étant donné que j’en ai assez de Cthulhu pour le moment, je vais examiner Gibbous la prochaine fois.. | ||
