Product Information

“Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth” was released for the Xbox 360 in 2005 and had a release date on PC six months later. The video game was developed by Headfirst Productions and released by Bethesda Softworks. In this game, you battle the forces of evil in 1920s New England. As you journey through your adventure, you must use your wits and maybe a little luck to solve puzzles and figure out if you have met a friend or a foe. You need detective skills worthy of Sherlock Holmes in order to sneak around, interview people, and put clues together. Mysterious unseen forces lurk around every corner, so prepare to be assaulted. When necessary, evil artifacts and 1920s weaponry easily kill the enemy. Dark Corners of the Earth is one of several video games based on the Cthulhu mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. In this Xbox classic, you play as Jack Walters, a former police officer turned private detective with a troubled past. On February 6th, 1922, you journey to the town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts, to investigate the case of a missing person. Events quickly take a turn to the horrific as the locals attempt to assassinate you and an angry mob pursues you. As the story progresses, you discover that everything that is happening is somehow connected to the cult of Dagon and Cthulhu, and it must be stopped.The Xbox edition of “Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth” incorporates a blend of several gaming elements, including adventure, detective mystery, survival horror, and first-person shooter (FPS). The display of the game is unique in many ways. Although the game has elements of an FPS, there is no heads-up display (HUD) anywhere on the screen to locate enemies, show your health, or indicate the remaining ammunition in your gun. Call of Cthulhu also includes other game mechanics such as stealth. Because of your limited ammunition, it is often necessary to sneak past your enemies rather than confront them head-on.Call of Cthulhu has some other unique game mechanics. Although you get injured, your character does not have any hit points. Instead, he takes damage to several vital regions, including the arms and legs, and these injuries hinder your progress in the game. For example, a broken leg makes you limp, and a broken arm makes it difficult to aim your weapon. There are items that you collect to heal yourself, but different wounds require different methods. This is one way that the game promotes the survival aspect and increases tension.Another innovative feature in “Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth” is sanity. Jack Walters has a history of psychiatric illness and has spent six years in Arkham Asylum. As the game progresses, Jack Walters witnesses dark and horrific details that upset him, which makes him lose his sanity. He hears hallucinations and begins talking to himself. If he observes too much horror, he becomes permanently insane or commit suicide, which will result in an immediate game-over. However, you regain sanity by seeking out sanctuaries or by killing monsters in your path. If you dare to enter the dark, otherworldly paradise that makes up Call of Cthulhu, be prepared to face some of the most macabre tones and spookiness ever released for the Xbox.
