Call of the Elder Gods is a first person puzzle game set in the 1950s, where a university student, Evie Drayton, must investigate a strange artefact with the help of Professor Harry Everhart. This is a sequel to Call of the Sea, which I played for free on the Epic store. Harry is the husband of the original game’s protagonist Nora, while Evie is also linked to the island expedition. Gameplay (high quality) • The player must solve puzzles by searching the environment for clues hidden in notes, pictures, and other objects. • Use symbols to identify number codes to open locks. Rotate objects into the correct position, or press buttons in the correct order to operate ancient machinery. • Some puzzles require switching between both characters as they work together to solve different parts of the puzzle. • Most puzzles are well designed. I didn’t have to use hints or a guide, and I only had to resort to some minor brute forcing on a couple of occasions. The objective of each puzzle is usually easy to understand, so if you search thoroughly to find all the clues, the specific solutions can be identified through logical reasoning and process of elimination. • Each chapter takes place in a different location, including a mansion, underwater ruins, Egyptian themed secret lair, and a World War 2 outpost. Story (medium quality) • Starts out interesting. I liked both Harry and Evie, while their investigation into the artefact puts them under threat from members of a secret society. And with Nora taking on the role of a narrator, I expected to learn more about what happened to her after the events of the first game. • However, the last couple of chapters kind of lost me as the theme shifted away from horror and turned into more of a generic science fiction story. • Compared to the first game, there are more conversations with NPCs, and the voice acting is very good. • However, cutscenes are shown as stationary images with very little animation, which feels low budget. Technical (high quality) • It took me just under 7 hours to complete the story. • I didn’t have any problems with bugs, crashes, framerate or stuttering. • Graphics are simple but the quality is elevated by the colourful art style. • Controls are fully rebindable and work well with mouse and keyboard. • Sprinting speed feels about 1% faster than walking speed, which can be slightly annoying in locations where puzzle elements are more spread out. Recommendation Call of the Elder Gods is a good game which fans of puzzle games should enjoy. I’d suggest playing Call of the Sea first to understand Harry and Nora’s story. Both games have a similar quality of puzzle design, and I’d recommend picking up the bundle on a small sale.

I am so glad that I didn't discover Call of the Sea until after this game was already released! The first game left me absolutely wrecked and devastated. So when I found out there was a sequel, I was SO excited to learn it was about Harry. While I think Call of the Sea had a better storyline and was more emotional, the puzzles and gameplay of this game were more challenging. I felt like I had to work a lot harder to figure things out, which I loved. Both games have made me a forever supporter of the game devs. I will play anything they put out!

Lovecraftian horror turned into a neatly structured escape-room experience. The universe seethes with ancient madness, humanity stares into truths it was never meant to know, and somehow, the puzzles remain fair and the clues are surprisingly considerate.

It is good, but not as good as Call of the Sea. The puzzles are not as interesting, so is the story. Also, it is missing the subtle horror elements of the previous games plus cthulhu imagery. If Call of the Sea was 9/10, this one is 7/10.

One thing that the Call of... series does better than many "set-piece puzzle" games (for me at least) is that feeling of learning a "language" (sometimes literally) with each puzzle. These games end up being about putting your brain in an unfamiliar space to connect to Something Else across time, space, or reality...and how (pointedly counter to the Lovecraftian inspirations it openly employs) that kind of connection to the "alien" can be a beautiful thing. The central story/framing feels a bit more...conventional in some ways than Call of the Sea, but that may simply be increased familiarity with this team and series' style. That said, the ending, which initially felt a bit abrupt, left me with an refeshing "aaaaaahh" mood as the credits rolled out. With this series and American Arcadia, I really want to keep seeing this team putting out work. There aren't really many out there doing this level of quality in this space.
