Information / Synopsis
Welcome to a new concept of text adventure. With El Gran (The Great) Cthulhu you can experience the evolution of an engine previously used in titles such as Donum or Innsmouth, which is now available for the Spectrum Next. Live the concept of a text "mini-adventure" with a short game (lasting between 45 and 90 minutes) of great intensity and technical details never seen before in a text adventure for the Spectrum Next.
The new engine includes:
- A more compact, fast, and dynamic code.
- A new graphic system designed for simplified user interface, with a resolution of 320x256 pixels and 256 optimised colours in a custom palette.
- A new audio system capable of simultaneously playing music, sound effects, and digitised audio.
- The use of longer texts and more complex commands.
STORY
After years of studing, you resolved to create your own expedition and search for the legendary sunken city of R'lyeh, that blasphemous realm beneath the sinister waves of the vast and forsaken Pacific.
Venture into the accursed city where the great Cthulhu lies in restless slumber, wander its cyclopean structures and, above all, seek the means of escape through the proper ritual. For should you fail, no mortal force may deliver you from the unspeakable doom that awaits.
A video game inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's short story The Call of Cthulhu.
