Lovecraft unique, constantly presenting you with new stuff to tool around with, whether it's a new weapon, perk or ability.
Using your Tesla backpack, you can teleport out of danger, zipping through walls and crowds of beasts to find space, while locating pieces of Tesla's 'War Pigeon' mech means you can temporarily enjoy massive firepower and the sight of monsters being turned to pulp in your wake. These collectible drops also prove vital, granting health, temporarily slowed time, better weapons, and special power-ups that can be used a limited number of times, most of which are essential for crowd control.Īcross multiple levels within three different planes of reality, you'll shoot your way through more and more waves of eldritch monsters, including a plague of Deep Ones, Polyps, Fire Vampires, and Spawn of Dagon. These last for the duration of a level, ramping up your proficiency and suite of skills with attribute-enhancing perks including ricocheting bullets, faster rates of fire, more rapid movement, health regeneration, additional barrels for your gun, or increased supply drops. Each stage sees you levelling up to unlock a new perk from a choice of two randomly selected ones, the more nightmarish creatures you dispatch earning XP to power-up with more and more new abilities. We're not quite sure what the estate of both Tesla and Lovecraft think of this, but it makes for a surprisingly compulsive top-down blaster. You play as famed inventor Nikola Tesla, packing all manner of steampunk (electropunk?) contraptions with which to fight the myriad monstrous creations from the imagination of renowned horror author HP Lovecraft. It's quite possibly among 10tons' best too, colourful and crazed, with an unapologetically daft premise. Lovecraft is the latest effort from the studio that brought us Crimsonland, Time Recoil and Jydge, and we'll be damned if it isn't one of the most deliriously fun arcade-style games we've played in a wee while. has managed to carve itself something of a niche as purveyor of all things twin-sticked and shootery.
