Call of Cthulhu - Dark Corners of the Earth: Game Info, Dark Corners of the Earth (Back to contents)
1) Introduction
2) Gameplay
3) Character Simulation
4) World & Story

Dark Corners of the Earth is a first-person horror game, developed by Headfirst Productions. It is a mix of horror, investigation, puzzle solving, exploration, and combat as you are faced with the seemingly impossible task of battling evil incarnate.

Set during the 1920s, Call of Cthulhu is based on the Cthulhu Mythos of HP Lovecraft, an American writer of fantasy and horror.

To increase the sense of immersion, there is no interface or 'HUD' on screen at any time during normal gameplay. Instead, more intuitive methods are available to assess your condition, ammunition levels, and other relevant information.

Characters and locations covered in these tales and other Mythos stories are heavily expanded in the Call of Cthulhu RPG from Chaosium, for which we have the exclusive license. This has provided us with the opportunity to pick the best bits from both the stories and source material to create the finest possible experience.

Key Features

  • Diverse array of levels from quaint towns to alien locations, including Deep One City
  • Dynamic Sanity system resulting in hallucinations, panic attacks, vertigo, paranoia, and more!
  • Incredibly detailed real-time graphics with atmospheric lighting and dynamic shadows
  • Intelligent gameplay involving puzzle solving as well as combat and exploration
    1920s weaponry and vehicles as well as evil artifacts and alien technology
  • Lovecraft's famous monsters and locations
