Let's Play Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure Demo 01: To Uncurse a Cat
238Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure is a tongue-in-cheek point and click adventure game in development that takes a lighthearted look at the Cthulhu mythos and the adventure game genre in general. Traditionally animated and with 2D painted backgrounds as well as comprehensive voice acting it seeks to hark back to the days of classic adventure games made by LucasArts and similar companies. The main character Buzz has ended up with the Necromonicon against his wishes and on top of that has accidentally cursed his pet, the result being it can now talk. Neither find this situation agreeable and so they set out to remove the curse on Buzz's cat and try to get the dreaded tome to the person who was searching for it in the first place. Now, if only he hadn't been kidnapped...
In this first video of the demo released on their website, we get introduced to the general setting and start to take in the dark and eerie Darkham, full of forbidden secrets and things best left unknown. It also has a fish shop and one of the best inventory items the beginning of any point and click adventure came has had to date.
