Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice

You might enjoy this game under rather specific conditions : you like Lovecraft lore, and rather pointlessly difficult P&C adventure games (timed deaths, pixel hunting). It looks good, ran perfectly with windows 10. Just keep a guide handy.

How to enable old, american voices? Is this possible? I can only hear voices with British accent. I remember version from CD-Action and it had american dubbing - better than British IMHO.

And I loves it. It is hard, fairly short; but normal length at that time games was published, also computers was still mostly something your dad had in his office, and you only got the change when he was not home or he gave you permission to use it. Thanks GOG for letting me replay my childhood adventure game.

Buy the game and experience it yourself but preferably it's much more entertaining to watch the Retsuprae play through and save your money because It hasn't even been a year since I went through that and all I can remember is "My engines my engines!"

I found myself enjoying this game much more than the first Call of Cthulu (Shadow of the Comet). It has far better controls/interaction/interface (true point & click), well-timed auto-save feature (really tones down the frustration when you die), and more linear progression, which I prefer. Also, no pseudo-mazes, and no need to keep notes. The option to keep the written dialogue on screen until you click was a very pleasant addition to a non-native english speaker like me. Considering its age, I fount it to have good graphics, atmospheric soundtrack, nice voice acting (I chose to play the US edition first, maybe I'll update when I decide to play the UK version too), and it run very smoothly on a Windows XP system. Minus half a star for the small duration (finished it it within a weekend), and another half star for some minor pixel hunting (only two times did I use a walkthrough, both of which were pixel-hunting related) All in all, a value-for-money purchase (especially for anything under 5$, as I bought it on sale)
