## What is Lovecrafts Untold Stories LITE?

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is the Lite version of Lovecraft's Untold Stories. It includes 2 levels and 1 playable character. Try the game and if you like it, buy and enjoy the Premium version. The information that follows applies to the full premium version!

Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is an action rogue-lite with RPG elements. You explore randomly generated levels based on the H.P. Lovecraft stories, fighting cultists and all kinds of monsters from the Mythos, improving your weapons and gear, solving puzzles and challenges, and looking for clues and knowledge to defeat the Great Old Ones and the Outer Gods.

LIVE H.P. LOVECRAFT’S STORIES

Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is based on H.P. Lovecraft’s stories. You will experience first-hand the cosmic horror created by the genius of Providence. Every character will go through an investigation that will take them through different locations, from the creepy old Victorian mansion to the abandoned hospital where forbidden experiments take place or the jungle where lost tribes celebrate forgotten rituals, just to name a few. Levels are randomly generated: it will be a different experience every time you play. Also, they vary depending on the character you’re playing with. Look for items and clues to unlock secrets and new stories.

5 CHARACTERS, 5 WAYS OF FIGHTING THE MYTHOS

You can play as 5 different characters, each with a different playstyle and storyline. A private detective, a witch, a thief, a professor, and even a ghoul—each with different stats, weapons, and combat moves, creating five entirely different gameplay experiences. The Detective offers a balanced playstyle, with average Health and Stamina. The Professor is a specialist in ranged combat, with less Health and a special shield granted by his weapon, the Tillinghast. The Witch does a lot of damage, has teleport abilities and elemental shields of fire and ice, but also a very low Health. The Thief is a specialist in melée combat that takes advantage of its stealth to maximize her damage. The ghoul does a lot of melée damage, has a high Health and regenerates itself, but can’t use medkits at all.

KEY FEATURES
* Fight hundreds of different monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos in this intense action roguelite 
Explore Lovecraft’s stories: every character has a storyline that crosses randomly generated levels set in different locations from Lovecraft’s stories, such as the hospital, the jungle, or the port city just to name a few

* Face the Great Old Ones: Great Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Dagon, Shub-Niggurath, and Azathoth await you in special levels

* Investigate thoroughly: explore every corner to find secret levels and knowledge about the Great Old Ones

* Learn about the Mythos to fight them: to have a chance at fighting the Great Old Ones you need to acquire knowledge about them or their mere presence will drive you insane

* Madness awaits: in the course of your adventures you will have to make some decisions, and taking the wrong ones will shake your sanity. If it gets too low, you will start losing your mind – and if you go mad you will take your own life to escape the horror 

* Pick your hero: Choose between 5 different characters, the detective, the thief, the professor, the witch, and the ghoul

* Different playstyles: every investigator has a different combat style and skills, but levels also vary depending on who you’re playing them with – so the gameplay experience is totally different

### 4/5 — Busted touch controls! *However…

*2025-09-21*

Nope cant adjust the absurd default control position as others have mentioned (does not work as intended)… bottom line the movement sticks should have never been placed on the outskirts of screen!  

(Review update) 

*However it surprisingly has flawless controller support, with even a controller ui guide in control settings. It says nothing about controller support in description just a vague mention of mfi support in one of the update notes.

Anyhoo I use an xbone controller via bluetooth and it is 99.999% better gaming experience!!! Truly an amazing game and a shame lots of people probably passed on this because of the busted touch controls.

### 3/5 — Controls???

*2023-10-10*

The dev say you can adjust the size and position of the virtual sticks but you can’t? Opened the controls thing and it lets you change nothing.

### 2/5 — Progress impossible

*2023-01-21*

Cannot enter chapter one, loads infinitely. Games First steps look very promising, please bugfix!

**Developer response:** Dear user, we are sorry to hear that you are having issues. Please, write to info@blinigames.com explaining what device are you playing what´s the issue in detail that doesn´t let you enter chapter one. Our team will try to help you asap.

### 5/5 — A really well designed game

*2021-12-04*

The amount of effort that went into this game deserves more support

### 3/5 — One vital issue

*2021-09-27*

This game is honestly fantastic, except for one issue. The control sticks are too close to the edges, forcing you to hold your device in a very awkward way. 

That’s the only thing holding me back from buying the full version.

**Developer response:** Hello Dreadosaurus, Thanks a lot for your comment. You can change the position and size of the virtual sticks if you go to Options / Controls.

### 5/5 — Easily one of the best games ive played

*2021-08-28, version 1.323*

Amazing. Lots of content for a demo

### 3/5 — Не понравилось

*2021-08-03*

Темно, управление неудобное, графика примитивная

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-10-29*

Looks really nice I haven’t downloaded it but I am going to

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-10-29*

I know it’s the lite version but genuinely trying out this game and it won’t get past the load screen for “The Old Mansion” which is like 2 minutes into the game. 
iPhone XS Max on latest iOS.

Controls are very basic and can not be changed even though there’s some kind of adjustment screen in the settings, it allows you to do nothing.

Could’ve been good, but right now it’s terrible.

### 5/5 — 5 фхтагнов из 5

*2020-08-25*

Потрясающие атмосфера, звук и пиксельарт. Единственное, что напрягло, это то, что функции предметов не всегда очевидны из описания и приходится проверять их «методом тыка». Что, в целом, это тоже работает на атмосферу)
P.S. механика с безумием улыбнула. Застрелился, не дойдя до конца особняк. Нраица 👍🏻
