Game Review: ‘The Innsmouth Case’

Choose your own adventure books, remember those? Those fun times where you either choose paths to make the story last a while and remain interesting, or end suddenly with embarrassing choices that say a lot about you. Well, RobotPumpkin Games and Assemble Entertainment have brought back the joys and pains of this reading style digitally in The Innsmouth Case, an interactive story set in the world of H.P. Lovecraft.
