Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is a rich and intoxicating set of tales weaved together, balancing mystery, combat, and madness together in an engrossing experience. Combat isn’t particularly up to snuff with today’s standards but it could be forgiven considering its aesthetic and gameplay are reminiscent of the SNES, with which the controls fit in perfectly.

Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is a fun shooter, for the most part. It doesn’t gain much from mining Lovecraft lore; you could swap out the foes for any other number of pixellated nightmares. But slaughtering your way through the hordes is a satisfying and challenging experience, and there’s enough replayability here to keep you diving back into the abyss.

Una interesante amalgama de géneros (rogue-lite, twin shooter, RPG...), que brilla especialmente por su ambientación y los momentos de exploración, pero que resulta un tanto plano por su enfoque de la acción. No ayudan algunas elecciones, como que morir nos obligue a repetir el nivel... pero a poco que te atraiga Lovecraft puede gustarte.

Los fans del género roguelike, en cambio, se toparán de bruces con una experiencia más torpe y peor medida de lo que suelen estar este tipo de juegos. Con elementos argumentales que lastran más que enriquecen, y con partidas que se alargan artificialmente durante horas por numerosas trampas de una fórmula a la que le falta profundidad real que invite a la rejugabilidad.

Zudem gefällt mir, dass die wesentlichen Merkmale der Welt von H.P. Lovecraft spürbar werden, man unterschiedliche Charaktere und die Großen Alten stückweise freischaltet und die Spielbalance trotz prozedural ersteller Areale überaus fair ist. Das fühlt sich an wie ein spielbares Tabletop von Villen des Wahnsinns. Hallo Blini? Macht eine Konsolenversion für PS4, One und Switch!
