For all its rip-roaring Indiana Jones adventure, its ancient civilizations and pulpy supernatural peril, Call of the Elder Gods’ true heart is perhaps its tatty leather-bound journal. That won’t be a surprise to anyone that’s played Call of the Sea, its well-received predecessor, but it’s gratifying to see that – for all this follow-up’s bigger, bolder ambitions – the original’s first-person narrative charms and smart, deductive spirit remains.
This post offers an intriguing take on blending Lovecraftian themes with action-adventure elements. It’s interesting to see how the sequel builds on the original while exploring new territory. Looking forward to seeing how the game develops!
