Decent mini horror experience
Dagaon is essentially a interactive video game adaptation of HP Lovecraft's story and it does a good job of capturing the atmosphere of the story.

Trick of the light (novel)
Great visual Novel, terrible walking sim where you don't even walk. Anyway, when it shines, it shines bright. The visuals & the narrator voice are the main point of this short novel retranscription. Do not expect something like "The Shore". Here , you won't move, you bearely click on things 2 POI maximum per paragraphs. For the ones not familiar with HP Lovecraft life, there's some little informations about him. The project is cool but I wouldn't dare call this a "game".

Visual experience of the short story
Dagon: by H. P. Lovecraft is basically a retelling of the short story of the same name by the same author. The words are exactly the same, so in a way it's just like reading the story, but with visuals and a bit of interaction. It's not a walking sim, you cannot move your character, but you can look around the Lovecraftian landscapes and find some interesting Lovecraft trivia by finding hidden Elder Signs. Because it is based on a short story, it should come to no surprise that the game is short as well, it took me around half an hour to finish. But it's free, so don't worry about it. If the developers would make more of these visual, Lovecraft-retelling short games, I would definitely play them.

Very good visual novel
4.5* rounded up because I had so much more fun than I expected from a free game. . Every scene has so many amazing details I was as interested in taking it all in as I was in progressing the story. The ambient sounds, music and narrator's voice made the immersion into the story almost complete. It's not without issues: on my screen the tinypointer pixel was almost invisible at times, and thank creators for subtitles, because there were few screens where the narration disappeared in the background music, but none of that ruined my fun. Even though we're railroaded through the story, the trivia hunt keeps the player engaged. I first got my hands on Lovecraft's stories in middle school, and the team still managed to find some trivia that would be new to me. And it's all for free!
