Story

85 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay is great and the story parodies HP Lovecraft themes as well as has it's own style in that it merges the early teens to thirties Lovecraftian times with a just right pinch of steampunk; pulled off so well that I, as someone who gags at having steampunk genre things forced at me constantly, actually enjoyed the elements of the genre in this game.

Fun arcade-like style (to me) that is made even better by the addition of my sound effects :D.
