Hi guys!

We've just released a free mini point and click Lovecraft adventure, based on the short story 'The Terrible Old Man'. If you get a moment do check it out, it only takes 30 mins max to get through I would say. Any feedback would be most welcome smile

DOWNLOAD HERE

Story:

Three men of loose virtue are enjoying a drink in a local tavern, when they overhear the story of a rich and feeble old man who lives in town. They soon plot to take his treasures...

The game was made in 30 days for the March 2015 MAGS competition.

Features:

- An adaptation of the classic H.P. Lovecraft short story
- Beautiful hand drawn graphics and animation
- Fully animated cut scenes
- A cast of several characters
- 640 x 400 resolution
- Point and click interface
- Inventory items
- Horror!

Downloading!

EDIT: Only one thing wrong with this little game - it wasn't long enough! I really like the graphics, sort of watercolor look. I really enjoyed it - well done!

I would also like to share this at Mystery Manor - I believe they would enjoy it too.

Question, I have music but not voices.... are there voices in this game?

EDIT
Finished the game... voice at the very end so I am guessing they don't speak, was a fun little game ..thanks

That was a very good game considering it was made in 30 days !! Wow !! praise

Let's hope we might be treated to a full length Adventure next time.
[It would be well worth paying for one yes]
