About This Game

Welcome to the realm of Necronomicon, where the quiet life of scholar William H. Stanton is abruptly upended by the dark and mysterious world of the occult.

It is the year 1927. Stanton finds himself in the drawing room of his home in Providence, Rhode Island, when his old friend, Edgar, arrives at his doorstep.

Edgar appears distressed and confused, handing Stanton a metallic pyramid and warning him not to give it to anyone—specifically, not to give it to Edgar.

Stanton is still processing this strange encounter when a doctor visits to inform him that Edgar has lost his sanity and needs to be committed. William believes there is more to the tale and resolves to find Edgar, only to stumble upon a dreadful secret that poses a threat to all of mankind.

In this captivating point-and-click adventure inspired by H.P Lovecraft, you will travel through the frightening atmosphere of Gothic New England, figuring out puzzles and gathering evidence to support Stanton in solving the mystery of the Necronomicon.

Can you aid Stanton in saving the human race?
