Elderand used Lovecraft elements and managed to lure me in through its Metroidvania gameplay as an ARPG platformer game.
Exploring through the dungeons of Elderand to uncover the hidden secrets of the world that involves a Great Elder One - Cthulhu. By fighting ugly, gruesome monsters out of your way.
The pixel art style is outstanding and heavily shows the atmosphere of the game's world-building. However, the monster designs are pretty repetitive with no variety which reduces the fun of the Lovecraftian-inspired game.
Use Lovecraft to Lure and I'll Take the Bait for Elderand
