What players think
The recurring themes across 138 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
In the music and sound department, the game also performs fairly well, all dialogue options (of which there are quite a lot) being fully voice acted and featuring subtle background music and sound effects.
Visually, one cannot help but think that this could actually be an original LucasArts game, featuring the exact same pixelated art style like many of the classics and a UI that most closely resembles that of Monkey Island 1&2 and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.
While the first part of the game focuses really heavy on the classic point & click adventure style of gameplay (which it does really well, by the way, mixing it up with a few puzzles with different mechanics), it all of a sudden turns into more of an action-adventure game once you get past a certain point in Innsmouth.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
