"If you are like me, then when you first saw the name of this game, you not only laughed, but instantly wanted to try it. Also if you are like me, your only chance was a demo that didn’t really let you even get a taste on your brother’s 360. So to see this game hit Steam made me sh*t bricks and rummage faster for my credit card then pretty much any other game you bought online. Was it worth it? Come with me . . ."- Megabyte
TouchArcade: Hello, gentle readers, and welcome to the RPG Reload, the weekly features where we attempt to take over the world by being the best heroes we can be. Each week, we take a look at an RPG from the App Store's past to see how it's doing these days, how it holds up, and how the wife and kids are. All kinds of RPGs are welcome in this feature, and I'll always do my best to mix things up from week to week. To keep my madness in check, however, once a month I throw the selection to you, the readers. Simply leave a comment below or drop into the Official RPG Reload Club thread in the forum to tell me what you'd like to see me play in the next reader's choice column, which will be RPG Reload File 013. Yes, the five Thursdays in October mean you guys have an extra week to vote this time around, so make your voices heard. You can also comment or post about the game I've written about, or RPG things in general. Fresh comedy is also welcome.
GameCrate: "Here are six titles that are sure to bring back fond memories of sitting on the carpet directly in front of your big CRT TV set, and if you liked the classic games that inspired these titles you owe it to yourself to see what modern advancements can add to the experience."
You usually don't find Cthulhu Saves The World on such lists. Nice inclusion!
As you can probably guess from the title, this one is a parody of the highest degree. Cthulhu Saves The World is the latest in a long line of RPG parody titles released by Zeboyd Games. Responsible for the likes of Breath of Death VII, the company specialises in parodies of classic RPG titles, often with tentative links to the horror genre in some way. However, even taking into account that a past title featured a zombie were-vampire as a protagonist, this one has an especially unique premise.
I'm so happy to see this game get reviewed so highly. I LOVED the idea of the Breath of Death series ,but just don't have time to play an RPG anymore!
