Yet, when I ran across this, I just had to toss this out there for consideration:
Cthulhu was all set to plunge the world into insanity and destruction when a band of heroes cursed him and sealed away his powers. The only way for him to break the curse is to become a true hero. Save the world to destroy it!

It was cool of them to use graphics and sound from the 1930’s to make it more thematic. 8 bit Graphics? LOL
Alright, Mr. Wisenheimer… 1990s graphics I’d say. Honestly, it’s three bucks so you know I had to get it just for laughs. You get to play a cranky Cthulhu and I could pass that up.
The interesting thing is, all the computer and console gaming sites are saying it’s a great game!
