The Sinking City Will Submerge You in Lovecraftian Horror – April 4, 2016 

We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of the infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.
— H.P. Lovecraft, “The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Stories”

The Sinking City, a game of adventure and investigation, takes place in the fictional city of Oakmont, Massachusetts in the 1920s. Something supernatural has taken possession of the city and the minds of its inhabitants.

You play a private eye who’s trying to uncover the source of what’s plaguing the city. Will you survive or be driven to madness?

To make Oakmont realistic, Frogwares is creating an American city with historically accurate details. This will help players immerse themselves in the world and freely explore Oakmont at their own peril and risk.

The Sinking City is to be released sometime in 2018 for Windows and consoles.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal. "I put my heart and soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process." - Vincent Van Gogh "I need solitude for my writing; not like a hermit - that wouldn't be enough - but like a dead man." - Franz Kafka "I've been to hell and back, my boy." - Susan Ashworth, The Cat Lady
