A very fun little turn-based game based on the Cthulhu mythos during WW1. This game is a lot of fun, however it really cheap-shots you at times by having enemies appear off-screen with no warning, making planning very difficult at times. The story is certainly a lot of fun too with the reanimates and the various monstrous creatures that continue to attack as well as the creepy sounds the dark children make when they die.
I'd recommend this game if you're a fan of lovecraftian tales and turn-based strategy, but the game does have it's problems, especially with a lack of explanation for how to use certain abilities can really make it frustrating at times, but I still enjoyed it and had a lot of fun with the game.
