About

A comedy cosmic horrror adventure made in Transylvania.
Darkham, with its crooked gambrel roofs, dark alleys, and a past shrouded in secrecy, never really was a welcoming place, but nowadays? Kooky cults are popping up everywhere, and that most evil book, the Necronomicon, is spoken of in trembling whispers once more.
Detective Don R. Ketype is on the case to retrieve the mysterious evil tome, but unsuspecting librarian Buzz Kerwan stumbles upon it and accidentally transforms his cat, Kitteh, into a walking, talking abomination. Being humanized? Quite a downgrade.
Gibbous is a comedy cosmic horror game - a modern adventure that is classically inspired, features gorgeous HD art, detailed traditional animation, and a lengthy story that will see the three protagonists travel around the world and deal with abominations both cosmic and human-made, voodoo, and Things That Should Not Be. From Lovecraft Country to Transylvania, set off on a quest to get a very cynical cat to stop talking.

Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure reviews and comments

Very good
«Liked before it became a hit»
As a standard, run-of-the-mill adventure game I might recommend it. It does a decent job of that. But I wanted "A Cthulhu Adventure" and was instead served up nothing of the sort. At most, the final hour of the game is Lovecraftian but the rest, sadly, is not. For this reason, I'm disappointed and do not recommend playing it.
