    This game had me excited and it starts off fairly strong, although a bit cliche. Now what I don't like about it is that this genre is usually fairly experimental and brings new things to the table and this title is lacking in comparison. It is also not great as an adventure game. If you are looking for a mainstream title with good graphics (rare in the genre) and are into LovecraftianThis game had me excited and it starts off fairly strong, although a bit cliche.

    Call of Cthulhu on Nintendo Switch succeeds with strong storytelling and captivating choices, but poor graphics and gameplay.

    Ifyou have already played the PS4/Xbox One/PC versions of the game there’s no need to consider this Switch porting, unless you’re interested in playing it on-the-go.

    The title is the same as it was a year ago (eternal uploads included, unfortunately): considering that the starting material, from a technical point of view, was certainly not a miracle, one could almost say that the game is more at ease on the hybrid Nintendo.
