H. P. Lovecraft’s The Case of Charles Dexter Ward - New Kickstarter horror from Senscape

Senscape has just announced through Kickstarter, H. P. Lovecraft’s The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, which is a new horror adventure by the same designers of Scratches, Serena and Asylum. Developed in that great point and click style, Charles Dexter ward is a faithful and painstakingly researched adaption of a popular novel written by Lovecraft.

This point-and-click adventure is a faithful and painstakingly researched adaptation of The Case of Charles Dexter Ward — a perennial favorite among hordes of fans and the only novel Lovecraft wrote in his lifetime — which happens to be the first of its kind in the video game industry.

But there's more to this game than just an adaption, as you'll be travelling to many locations that focus on story and mood, from cemeteries and libraries to a crumbling village all steeped in that Lovecraft horror. Yet with all of this sounding like a game with more than just a mouse cursor, the developers have noted there will be no enemies, no weapons, no jumping, running or dieing. But don't let that disappoint as when it comes to the developer of Scratches they know exactly how to scare you without the need for a weapon at hand to save your life.

So when it all comes down to it and the Adventure Kickstarter Campaign for The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, I can assure you that the developer behind it will not disappoint. They know how to scare, they know how to write a good game and they will keep you talking about it for years to come. If you love your horror games then Senscape have got you covered!
