1924. Le détective privé Edward Pierce est envoyé enquêter sur la mort tragique de la famille Hawkins dans leur immense demeure sur l'île reculée de Darkwater, au large des côtes de Boston. Entre le comportement hostile de la communauté et les rapports de police suspects, il devient évident que l'affaire est bien plus complexe qu'il n'y paraît. Très vite, Pierce est plongé dans un monde terrifiant de complots, de cultes fanatiques, et d'horreurs cosmiques...
Dans ce monde, rien n'est ce qu'il semble être. Votre propre santé mentale est remise sans cesse en question, bien souvent supplantée par les murmures inhumains provenant de l'obscurité. Vous affronterez des peurs qui dépassent l’entendement - créatures terrifiantes, sciences étranges et cultes fanatiques dominent le mythe de Cthulhu, résolus à mener à bien le projet insensé de provoquer la fin de tout.
Votre esprit souffrira – l’équilibre entre votre lucidité et la folie ne tiendra qu’à un fil et vos sens perturbés vous feront douter de la réalité même qui vous entoure. Ne faites confiance à personne... à cet instant, le Grand Rêveur prépare son éveil.

Great adventure, not so great game.
This is more of an interactive movie, than a game and if you have no expectations whatsoever (for example you dont know HPL novels) you´ll probably love it. You might even if you know his work, but that´s not my case, so not sure. The story just grabs you and won´t let go until its over and it´s completely awesome! There are unexpected twists, awesome visual, the setting is breathtaking and eerie, I loved descriptions on characters and items, which give this "movie" such depth, various endings and game progressions to some extent are also great. Really enjoyed this and I would recommend it to everyone, but people who need to have great game mechanics, which gets me to cons of this "game/movie". This title does not deserve to be rated and described as a game, even though it technically is. Visual is nice as I said, but the detail is poor, especially passage in the hospital, where enviroment mostly looks like a game from 2006, but it´s not just that, everything lacks detail and there was probably not much work given to it, really this is just bad. Even worse, from a game standpoint of view is that gameplay mechanics are scarce whatsoever and even these are flawed and too bland, stealth passages are just meh, but at least it won´t bother people who hate these. What´s good in all this is that the game is at least stable, there were no bugs for me and it runs well even on weak computers. Don´t get me wrong, I love this title and I´m sure you will too if you´re a right person for it, but it needs to be said that it has its flaws and they´re huge. I rate it 5* as an adventure and 2* as a game. This topic or even this particular game needs to be (re)done by someone much better at games.
