Lovecraft Quest: A Comix Game combines an interactive comic with puzzles and reaction-based mini-games, drawing on stories by Howard Phillips Lovecraft. After a shipwreck leaves you on an island in the endless ocean, you enter the ancient Temple of Nameless Cults to investigate its mysteries. Your choices shape the plot, the main character’s life and sanity, and which of the game’s six endings you reach.

Explore the temple

The Temple of Nameless Cults was built at the dawn of time to worship the Other Gods. Its labyrinth is filled with traps and Lovecraftian horrors, including Dagon, lord of the Deep Ones, Shoggoth, servant of the Ancients, and perhaps Cthulhu. You avoid danger, solve puzzles and react quickly to threats. In some encounters, you must choose the correct door before time runs out to escape a creature.

Interactive comics

Hand-drawn, colorful scenes and a minimal interface use a comics style inspired by Lovecraft’s works. Interactive elements include puzzles, alternative endings and mini-games. Classic puzzles follow the style of 2D point-and-click quests, while reaction mini-games test how quickly you choose an action.

Choices and discoveries

The game includes six different endings, most of which involve a version of the main character’s death. Random events and procedural generation, including for the labyrinths, add variation between playthroughs.

You can also find artifacts from Lovecraft’s stories in some rooms of the Temple. These include the Necronomicon, a legendary book written by the alchemist and necromancer Abdul Alhazred. It tells of the Ancients, powerful beings dwelling beyond the borders of our dimension, and of rituals that can summon them. The legend says the original book was lost and that the last remaining copy is kept in the library of Miskatonic University in Arkham. Finding all the artifacts lets you learn each one’s story.
