About the Game





Worlds brought to life by H.P. Lovecraft and R.W. Chambers combined in the form of a pixelart point&click game.
As Solomon Hill, investigate the mysterious death of your twin brother and an ancient plot to bring back the lost city of Carcosa and its resident Hastur, known as the King in Yellow.



Explore the quiet town of Clinton, MA with Solomon and learn its history along with the secrets of its individual inhabitants. Discover the hidden threads of the Hill family history, especially the archaeological discoveries made by Solomon's father and his mysterious partner while excavating in the Sahara desert. Immerse yourself in the madness brought into the world by powerful beings from beyond time and space. Prevent the King in Yellow from reaching Earth... or don't.
