Dear Mr. Parker. I'm not much of a hand at making speeches.

Shadow_Jed_Donahue.jpg
That's a joke. He talked for two hours at the Temperance League meeting.

Shadow_Clerc.jpg
You're speaking ill of a public official !

There's no more to be said. You've scattered the comet's shadow. That's something we can never forget. Now you'd better get going, your boat won't wait !

Goodbye Swing. May your life forever be an uninterrupted series of breaks !

I love this LP, but it really really softened up at the end.

Stuff like that is probably better as in-game challenge than as actual narrative, I guess.

Thanks. You really nailed it on the text/screenshots ratio and all in all it was fun and interesting. Hope you'll pick up some other game soon.

also, how stereotypical of Narackamous to build his lair right outside a pool of substance that's apparently like kryptonite to him.

Almost a shame it had to end. Y'know I was kind of hoping for a plot twist thar, like Boleskine turning out to be an agent of Cthulhu y'know?

Ah well

Great LP!

You know, I was almost certain that the doctor was part of the cult (It's been many years since I've played it), since he would always have his study locked, but it seems it was just there to add some suspicion. There is also, a strange door in Jugg's home, that can be found behind a curtain , but this doesn't seem to have further significance either.


Also, I've collected all the game avatars here, added some more and edited them to add frames. It would be nice if someone from the staff, could make them forum avatars.

Any relationship between this guy's red and green eyes and the ruby and emerald used as eyes in the statue near the end? Is it some kind of fad I haven't picked up on?

It seems he got his father's eyes... his real father's eyes.

If you paid attention to Jonas Hambleton's diary, he mentions that he threw his wife deep into the sea, and the creature Dagon mated with her to produce two human-fish hybrid offspring.

I can't remember how the old man in the fishery got his webbed hands.
