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.

A real treat
As a big Lovecraft fan, I really enjoyed this. I think even those who have never read a Lovecraft story would find this entertaining and maybe even unsettling, like any good horror story should. Like Call of Cthulhu, Dagon is one of those core stories that stand out and define the mythos and with the pretty graphics and interactive elements this 'game' really brought it to life.

Short little gem
Faithful to Lovecraft this is as close to reading the short storie as you can come. Had a amusing time. Could have made it a bit more interactive though.

A visual and emotional experience
I reread Dagon a few weaks before playing bthe game and beforhand I had my doubts that it would make a good game. I am not sure I would call it a game, the focus is so much on the story that the gamification comes in second place and its nore of an slightly interactive visual and emotional experience. I recomend this if you like Lovecrafts works and if you want a sadly unice experience . Sadly because I I want more games to focus and respect the story this nmuch. I hope that other games will take inspiration from this.
