Chronicle of Innsmouth: Mountains of Madness is a Lovecraftian point’n’click graphic adventure inspired by the early 90s LucasArts classics. Drawing inspiration from H.P. Lovecraft’s most iconic stories, such as The Shadow Over Innsmouth and The Mountains of Madness, this detective story pulls you into a thrilling investigation across fateful places like Arkham and the South Pole.
A STORY OF MADNESS AND TERRIFYING AWAKENINGS
Private Investigator Lone Carter regains consciousness to find himself lying on a beach near Innsmouth. His body has been ripped apart, and as he fades away into death, he remembers in dreadful glimpses his fatal encounter with a Shoggoth. Awakened by a fire burning within, Carter returns completely recovered but forever changed. Haunted by visions of ineffable truths, he must escape Innsmouth and return to Arkham, where a mystery involving ritual murders and a plot intertwining different eras awaits.
