Dagon: by H. P. Lovecraft

Dagon is less a game and more a very fancy looking slideshow and is really not worth the time and effort even though it is only about 30 minutes long and free. Although it is a faithful adaption of Dagon, it doesn't fully capture the atmosphere of Lovecraft's work. The main reason for this is the lack of any meaningful interaction, you are essentially just listening to a bored sounding narrator quoting lines directly from the short story and left clicking to listen to the next line. Oh and you get to look around a minimally animated area, which outside of the first few screens consists of looking at a table, a clock on a wall, a window and a door! If you want to truely experience Dagon, just read the short story, it isn't Lovecrafts best story but it is better than this slideshow.

I'm not too familiar with the Cthulhu mythos,but I do think it's pretty interesting and this game piqued my interest as well. I wasn't disappointed! It's short but sweet.

A fun little visit through a short story. The limitations of the format, and not being able to move your head around made me feel straitjacketed. Doesn't waste your time, though. I recommend reading the story on your own first: https://hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/d.aspx

It's great.

NOT RECOMMENDED. I have yet to successfully reach the main menu of the game. The loading screen animates for a while and then a random crash, input irresponsiveness or random Win10 processes (net1.exe) start crashing, probably because of how resource-starving these Unity processes tend to be. The aftermath of the crash leaves also other programs in a inresponsive state, requiring them to be restarted. Specifically the GOG Galaxy client. Not worth the massive trouble and data loss risk in its current state.
