I did not use the keyboard but rather a gamepad, so that maybe why I did not suffer through the control issues other have. Nevertheless, the music and sound is great, with a beautiful composition that follows yo uall throughout the game. The gameplay is also tight and quite intuitive, with the use of the violin bow being particularly inventive. Lastly, the presentation and graphics are amazing for a small free game. Without a doubt, a great little romp for the 30 minutes of game time it gives you.

As someone that has never read Lovecraft but does know of his works, I was pleasantly surprised. I reached this game while going through my ever-growing backlog, and was planning to just try the story and probably drop it. However, the story did grip me from start to beginning. The imagery helped sell "Dagon" as a story, even if the graphics were quaint. It is quite an efficiente way to showcase cosmic horror and the beginnings of Lovecraft work. "Dagon" has definitely made me far more interested in reading Lovecraft than ever before.
