Sherlock Holmes The Awakened
Experience a nerve-racking Lovecraftian adventure, rebuilt from the ground up with modern graphics and gameplay. Become Sherlock Holmes, and find yourself at the heart of the terrifying Cthulhu Mythos as you investigate a series of mysterious disappearances in Europe and the US.
The Awakened places Lovecraftian horror and insanity at the core of the experience, shaping how players feel (fear, suspense, vulnerability) and what they do (investigate, resist psychological distress). While it includes detective work and exploration, the horror elements are fundamental to its identity rather than incidental aesthetics.
Best for players looking for a scary, atmosphere-heavy, light on combat and low-gore horror experience.
