FBI Agent Moreton is called to a murder scene at the Greenich Museum in New York. The grand opening of the new exhibition on African cults is just around the corner as the nightwatchman was brutally mauled with a flashlight. Not everyone is content with a fed walking around and asking questions. Through layers of secrecy Moreton discovers that there's is way more at stake than the museum's reputation. Ancient evil stirs in light slumber.

Can you solve the case or do you submit to the Curse of the Old Gods?

I don't recall how I discovered this game but I'm glad I did it! I know it may not appeal to everybody, but adventure games were (and still are) my favorite genre in mid-90's and this game brought me some good memories. I think the story is OK, a little bit short compared to PC games, but then I believe it was developed by one person and it was actually a good thing for me, since nowadays I don't spend too much time playing games and I managed to finish it in my spare time. It's free and without ads, something rare nowadays. I enjoyed this game so much that I bought it on Steam to support the developer. Sadly, I just found out that the KS sequel was cancelled. Thank you for this cool game!

Really loved the game, got nabbed by the tentacles so went back to an old save to have another go. Then I got to a certain point and for some reason my shovel had disappeared from my inventory! Tried reloading the game but the same thing happened again. I guess I'll never know how to beat the tentacles!

Wonderful game! I would love to see another Lovecraftian point-and-click adventure from you. I was just a little disappointed that everything was 15 shades of blue... however, I don't know if that was some retro throwback to old school point-and-click games (I was born in '89, so "old school" is mid-00s Flash games). Thanks for all your hard work!
