Note:

I am currently in the process of adding sound to the project and rounding a few edges. I have disabled downloads temporarily until after the end of lowrezjam 2016's rating period. I'll upload updated files with sound afterwards. Thanks you for you patience ;D

This game is a submission for the 64x64px #lowrezjam 2016. It's a micro Cthulhu Mythos adventure game based loosely on the stories of H.P.Lovecraft. Solve the mystery of a murder and prevent the summoning of an elder god.

Scour dusted volumes of occult books to find hints on which aspect will arrive that night and how to banish it back to where it came from. All hints are in the books. But did you find all books? Do you have time to find every hint? Maybe there is another way out.

This was really cool and I liked the art! The text was a bit hard to read and the addition of sound would really make this lively, but it's still a short and sweet game!

Just pushed an update with a lot of fixes. Have fun! :D

Nice little mythos game. Lacks some eerie music and sound effects. There's a bug though. The first book from the left in the left bookcase has wrong position after it was read. Also there's a typo in the first left book in the right bookcase. It says the "lasr" instead of "last".
