I am lost in a nightmarish limbo. Everywhere I turn, bizarre creatures stalk me, rending my flesh and chipping away at my sanity. There is only one hope for me in this place: talking cats.
The world of Cyclopean: The Dark Abyss is not a welcoming one. It's a monochromatic adaptation of HP Lovecraft's Dreamlands, so the bleakness is thematically appropriate, though that doesn't make dying over and over (with all progress reset) as you feel your way around any less punishing. But like a good Lovecraft story, it's uniquely strange and wonderfully atmospheric.
