Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure Demo

Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure is new point and click adventure from a studio named Stuck In Attic.

It’s been a while since we’ve played a proper point and click adventure, and it looks like it’s becoming a genre that doesn’t get enough attention. The developers and designers from Stuck In Attic are trying not only to revive this genre but to give players a great new adventure and amazing characters.

They are not ashamed to say that they have drawn inspiration from games built by studios like Lucas Arts, for example. That used to be the standard for this type of games, but Gibbous aims not only to use the classic recipe but also to improve it significantly.

The most important aspect of any point and click adventure game is the character development. Most of the time it doesn’t even matter how the game looks or plays if the characters are relatable and funny. That is just the case with Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure, which hits all the high points.

The players get to play with three different characters, a private eye named Don R. Ketype, a librarian called Buzz Kerwan, and a talking cat. From the looks of it, they found the famous Necronomicon and used it to give the cat a voice, but she seems to be abominable or at least really mean.

The second aspect that will definitely catch the eyes of the players is the character animation, which is simply stunning. They say that it’s done frame by frame, which is a procedure that takes a long time, but the end result is lifelike characters.

We also have to mention the overall aspect of the game, with its hand painted backgrounds, and the voice overs. Both of these contribute to a great experience.

For now, Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure is still under development, but the demo should be more than enough to convince anyone that this is a great point and click game that not only takes us back to the old days of gaming, but also takes into the future with its new concepts.
