Product Description


Product Description
"The best strategy game on the iPad yet." DigitallyDownloaded.net
"Joyously thoughtful..." 9/10 PC Advisor

Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land is a turn-based strategy/role-playing game based on the award winning Call of Cthulhu RPG. Set in the midst of World War One, the game pits your team of investigators and soldiers against an ancient enemy, one older than humanity itself... Can your team of investigators keep their grip on sanity long enough to stop these diabolical plans? The fate of humanity is in your hands...
Developed in conjunction with Chaosium and based their multi-award winning Call of Cthulhu RPG.

The game features:
- Full 3D graphics with high quality textures, images and effects to bring the action alive.
- Select from a range of authentic period weapons, equipment, armour, skills and more.
- Build your team up to match your gaming style; will you shred your foes with massed rifle fire or blast them with powerful spells gleaned from forbidden tomes? It's your choice!

Call of Cthulhu was originally the title of a novella by cult American horror writer H.P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) which has, since it was published in 1928, captured the imagination of generation after generation of fans. Returning to the horror from Lovecraft's original 'Reanimator' set during the dark days of WW1, Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land draws the player into a nightmare world where the terror of mustard gas and trench warfare are but a foretaste of what is to follow.

I was so excited to see this kind of game for the Kindle Fire that I ignored my own rule and bought it even though no one had reviewed it (paying 4.99 in the process). Clearly the port from ios has crippling interface problems. The buttons are very unresponsive -- they must be held abnormally.long
Worst of all I clicked on help and now the help overpays will not go away the game is locked and cannot be restarted
Please fix this. I can see this is probably a terrific game and I am very ready to love this game and change my review to a higher one-- turn based tact rpg is exactly what I want more of on the fire. Right now I'm out $5 and have a game that does not work

5.0 out of 5 stars A 5 star game for when the stars are right! September 12, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
This was a very fun Turn Based RPG set in the trenches of World War I using characters and themes from HP Lovecrafts Cthulhu mythos. The visuals are stunning and each character has a unique feel and specialty skill. Give this game a shot.

fantastic action-strategy game worth far more than what they are asking. visually superb with great atmosheric storytelling's elements. 10 hours or so to complete...and I was sorry. when it was over. I truly enjoyed playing through and when i completed the normal game i restarted on hard mode!!! please make more titles like this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cosmically Horrifying Audio
This is by no means a bad game. It's a fairly solid, if simple, grid, turn-based strategy game. The fact that it's Lovecraftian themed is just the delicious mind-shattering icing... Read more
