About this game
Call of the Elder Gods follows Harry and Evangeline as they search for their missing loved ones. This sequel to Call of the Sea builds its investigation around observing surroundings and working with objects. You gather clues from the environment and alternate between the protagonists to unravel problems whose pieces extend across time and space. The journey moves through New England interiors, the Australian outback and stranger locations, with a fully voiced story accompanying the investigation. Hints, icons and journal entries can be switched on or off, letting you decide how much assistance accompanies the search. Following the mystery therefore involves both solving the puzzles and choosing how much guidance to reveal along the way.
Collected in series
Calls from Beyond is a series of narrative puzzle adventures that draws on Lovecraftian mystery. Exploring unusual places and piecing together environmental clues brings you closer to personal stories caught up in ancient secrets.
