The Sinking City
“We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of the infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.”
— H.P. Lovecraft, “The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Stories”
The Sinking City is a game of investigation and mystery taking place in a fictional open world inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft.
The player steps into the shoes of a 1920s private investigator who finds himself in the city of Oakmont Massachusetts, New England. A city suffering from unprecedented floods of clearly supernatural origins. A city trembling on the brink of madness.
Can you survive this beleaguered town and untangle the mysteries responsible for its tragic situation or will you be driven beyond madness yourself?

loginThe Sinking City. Our open world, investigation, Lovecraftian game. Yes, that’s correct: Open World, Investigation and Lovecraft.
It will be bigger than anything we’ve ever made and we feel that opening up –freeing– the investigations in a whole city is the right next step for us. We also believe that Lovecraft’s universe and the Cthulhu Mythos are exactly what we should base our game on.
The Lovecraftian/Cthulhian setting has been dear to us for years. In 2016, we’ll celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened launch. The launch of a Sherlockian/Lovecraftian adventure, and a game that was regarded as a milestone in narrative adventure gaming.
We are thrilled to have been given the opportunity to innovate with the games we love. We hope you’ll also like what you’ll see.
