Dagon: by H. P. Lovecraft
Description
I am writing this under an appreciable mental strain, since by tonight I shall be no more.
Dagon is a 3D narrative experience in madness based on the cult short story of the same title by the master of cosmic horror and weird fiction, H. P. Lovecraft himself. It’s an interactive portal into the world of the controversial genius and his highly acclaimed Cthulhu Mythos, open to both newcomers and long-time devotees.
The change happened whilst I slept.
Step into the shoes of a former ship officer and morphine fiend, and dive into the Stygian Abyss of a drug-addled mind. Uncover the unspeakable, long-drowned horrors on a distant eldritch island and wallow in Lovecraftian dread.
I think I went mad then.
So make yourself comfortable in front of the screen and experience cosmic horror first-hand in this 100% faithful adaptation of the original story. It will only take about 30 minutes, but you may never look at the ocean the same way.
Warning: side effects may include insomnia, delirium and acute cosmic horror.

Faithful cosmic horror atmosphere!
I really liked this! Its so well done for a short game like this. The voice and the design is really adding to a great atmosphere. It would be great to see more of these developers in the future!

Being faithful too much is a problem
A great depiction of one of my favorite short stories of all time, although it has some flaws that are purely based on depicting the source material faithfully. Seeing the whole monster makes the experience less threatening because one of the key aspects of Lovecraft's perception of fear is that it is unknown. I think if they took a liberty and only showed some part of it, that would make it more terrifying. Another problem I found is the general gameplay. Passionate, no doubt. But it would be better as a walking simulator, not a slide-show-like or a visual-novel like. My conclusion is that this game definitely deserves a try (it is free, such a great price!!) 7/10
