I still don’t think I’ll ever get over the fact that Guillermo del Toro’s film adaptation of HP Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness, which was likely to star Tom Cruise, was shut down. Just thinking about it makes me want to spend all day in bed crying and eating ice cream.
So the news of a new video game adaptation of the story is very welcome indeed. It’s in the early stages of development, but what we’ve seen so far looks somewhat promising. Check out their website to see everything that they’ve shown so far.
And while we’re definitely in indie territory, and English is clearly not the first language of the developers, I just hope that the game introduces a whole new audience to the Lovecraft mythos.
Synopsis:
At the Mountains of Madness is an indie PC game based on the novel by HP Lovecraft, currently under development.
You play in first-person perspective as geologist William Dyer, a professor at Miskatonic University back in the 1930’s, who hopes to deter a planned and much publicized scientific expedition to Antarctica in search of undiscovered fossils and zones unexplored by man.
Coming soon to Steam!
