I recommend it, but it'd be best to have a copy of the original source material at hand.Needs some work on the technical side, too. Returning from pausing the game will sometimes proceed the text, and because you can't read any prior text like in most modern VNs, you will find yourself quite confused.. It's a short gamebut worth it. I do have to say that I found it quite unsettling, which is good ;). It is an unfortunate set of circumstances that led to the purchase of this game, the main one being a severe lack of media for the average Lovecraft fan outside the literature by the man himself\u2013 which, once exhausted, leaves little to satisfy the growing need for Cosmic Horror, and that bubbling, exciting feeling of dread that the old man seemed to produce so easily. The exact failures of other adaptions is a story for another time. Suffice to say that after searching through the existing works I have found few that lived up to my enjoyment of the original works. After playing 'The Whisperer in Darkness' I'm sad to say, my search continues.If you have read the original story, this is not the game for you. It adds little to what is already there, save a few interesting visuals, which would have had more impact if not for the strange mesh of styles throughout the game. I hesitate to even call it a game, really. With the exception of a few short episodes there is hardly an interactive element, and those elements mostly consist of walking from one room to another. That's not to say that this was an entire waste of time. The music was well done (definitely wear headphones, should you choose to play this), and like I said some of the visuals were good. Had the artist stuck with one style, perhaps closer to the one originally advertised (not that I'm BITTER) then I would have been more satisfied. If you've not read the original story and perhaps, for whatever reason, tend to prefer visual novels to others, then this might be good for you. Bear in mind there is still a helluva lot of reading so if your patience wears thin easily you might not enjoy it. But then if you don't like reading you probably haven't read through this horrendous review... Oh well.In short, potential players should be aware that there is not a lot to this game except reading and mood-setting. If you are looking for an interactive horror game you'd be better of taking your business elsewhere.. I was disappointed at the game itself. Wish the designers would have put more time and thought into it. :\/. It's a short gamebut worth it. I do have to say that I found it quite unsettling, which is good ;). Beautifully designed, awesome experience. I really really liked it. It's indeed Lovecraftian. Two thumbs up!. I enjoyed it a lot! Read the original short story a few years ago and really like the modernizing of the setting and characters for this game. Lovecraft's stories often take advantage of the increndible advancements and inherent unknowns of the early 20th century, and a lot of those themes are still relevant today. This would have been already great as a simple Twine story, but the interactive parts and (awesome!) audio really transform it into a super atmospheric piece of fiction.Recommended to everybody who likes a good weird tale!
