Chronicle of Innsmouth is a retro point-and-click adventure based on Lovecraft's works.

The main character is a young tourist that decides to take a detour during his trip and visit the town of Innsmouth, which is surrounded by scary rumors.
Much of the town's lore is narrated using flashbacks where the player occasionally controls the private detective Lone Carter.

The game attempts (with alternating results) to mix the humour and style of LucasArts adventures with the horror and dread typical of Lovecraft's stories.

A sequel, titled Chronicle of Innsmouth: Mountains of Madness was released in 2021, with detective Lone Carter as the protagonist.

Installation

See Required data files (AGS).

Status

The game is completable since ScummVM 2.8.0. On older versions the game is playable but not completable due to a game-breaking bug near the end of the game.
