Eternal Darkness was an inspiration, even when the magic and sanity system of the game is much more simple, so no worries.
We have some ideas about expanding this concept, but I'm not sure if it will be the next project. Probably adding some "combat" so the incantations are not just to solve puzzles. But they are only ideas for now, so you won't hear from us for a while! D:
Hi there, I am DragonExplosion and I am a Youtuber. If you like my videos, please leave a like and subscribe at my channel.
I would like to thank the creator for inviting me to play the entire game as it is definitely an honour on my end to play the full game. This was a really interesting horror game revolving around the main character investigating the mysteries and darkness in the Nameless City. As the main character gets deeper and deeper in the city, he uncovers the dark truth and secret of the city through the use of glyphs.
The game has a really cool storyline and a lot of effort was placed into telling the story of the world and working on the game mechanics of glyphs in the game. It made the experience more meaningful and fun especially with the inclusion of glyphs and great storytelling. I felt that the game could have made greater use of the glyphs instead of just using it for opening sealed areas and sealing the wind statues as I found the glyphs very interesting and it was definitely the main attraction for me other than the storyline.
It would also be cool if more horrific events or other events happening in the game as the main part of the game became more of running down the stairs and not dying due to psyche overload.
Overall, I enjoyed the lovecraft experience and the amazing adventure into the depths of the Nameless City. Will be looking forward to more games in the future. Thank you for reading my comment and I wish you good luck in your future endeavours.
A short but very interesting game. Journey into a city lost in time, and discover the secrets lurking in the shadows. An absolute recommendation of a game, and true testament to cosmic horror done right.It runs perfectly well on Steam Deck as you can see by pressing the link below:

Thanks for playing and for the review! :D
will you be adding an option to invert the vertical mouse axis? only thing keeping me from playing
For the next update, we are planning to add controller support for the game and the option to invert the Y axis (for both mouse and controller).
We don't know when the next update is ready sorry! But if you follow us on itch you'll get the notification.
Thank you!
Excellent game! A wonderful and magic dream from which I didn't want to wake up!
My most sincere congrats to the devs, the best tribute to Lovecraft I have ever played!
Thank you! :D
Thank YOU for making it :D
Really enjoyed the demo and was not disappointed by the full version. I still love the weird images and the atmosphere of the entire game.
Thanks for playing the game! :D
