Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Comet

I went in expecting standard adventure-game puzzle-solving, and Shadow of the Comet delivers that with a strong atmosphere. You're John T. Carter, an astronomer investigating a comet's arrival and the twisted history of a remote village. The game leans hard into cosmic horror flavor without relying on jump scares, instead building tension through cryptic NPCs, strange rituals, and the creeping sense that you're uncovering something humanity wasn't meant to find. The puzzle logic is classic point-and-click adventure territory: gather clues, combine items, talk to townsfolk to unlock story threads. It's methodical, sometimes slow, but the Lovecraftian framing gives mundane detective work a genuinely unsettling edge. If you're looking for a quiet, cerebral adventure steeped in cosmic horror rather than action or thrills, this scratches that itch well.
