    Call of the Elder Gods is smart, pretty, and, on occasion, satisfying, but it is also way too talky and too structurally obvious to become an absorbing experience. There are good puzzles here, and some will absolutely enjoy picking through its clues and strange story and lore. However, it lacks the confidence, elegance, and restraint needed to feel like an essential adventure-puzzle game.

    Runs with the ball from Call of the Sea, including smart and satisfying puzzles, and throws in a fair amount of creepiness and surreal visions to boot.

    Call of the Elder Gods proves to be a convincing sequel to that Call of the Sea, which delighted players a few years ago. The strength of this adventure lies in its fantastic Lovecraftian narrative, which proves engaging and up to expectations. Adding variety to the dynamics is a puzzle gameplay system that is decidedly satisfying and intuitive, even though it may cause serious difficulty on more than one occasion (fortunately, the difficulty is scalable, in a sense). Building on excellent foundations, the second chapter of this saga (which we recommend you experience in full) presents us with a new fork in the road that leaves a door open (but we won't say anything more) and puts two endings in front of us to discover, even though they will essentially head in the same direction. Even though Call of the Elder Gods was designed as an experience aimed at everyone, we are sure that those who have already played Call of the Sea will be able to delve more deeply into this worthy little piece of the Lovecraft universe.
