Here's a new game to sate the fans of Cthulhu Dice. All the references and allusions that the past decade of horror media has grave-robbed of Lovecraft and his mythos with some semblance of subtlety—only because you weren't familiar enough yet with the source material to notice a composite body when you saw one—at last reclaimed under the proper branding™ and collapsed into a grotesque and choppy pastiche apropos something you always heard was supposed to be scary, incomprehensible, utterly abhorrent. Call of Cthulhu: The Video Game aids in the stagnating and genretizing of this strain of horror, animating the cosmic-indifferent to serve a fandom its favorite comfort dish with all the tasty ingredients included. It's a sh*t game. Move on
One of the best takes on tower-defense that has none of the mediocrity that every other attempt seems to be saddled with. This game's got difficulty, depth and reward. Fully recommend it if you're up for a challenge and for something clever and cool.
I played through the whole game, expecting Dropsy's kindness to be invalidated, or his actions to be shown as transient and that anyone who once loved him could easily turn around and try and harm Dropsy but it never happened and I think that is what is so touching about Dropsy. It's sort of messed up, there's grief and hopelessness, people stuck in their unhappy ways not sure how or not willing to change them, a whole cavalcade of human emotion and strife but it is so refreshingly single-entendred and honest. A very kind game I suspected all along to turn on me but never did. The soundtrack completes this package and reveals it as one of those great indie games with an on-point style through and through. I love Dropsy.
