- Lora's Adventure Game Reviews: Alone in the Dark
- This suspenseful classic launched the survival-horror game genre, but its primitive gameplay and dated look make it hard to revisit today.

- Rated 7.9/10 by Omni, "Call of Cthulhu offers a great (mature) story, some heart-stopping moments, and some great evolution of the first-person shooter genre, even if it does have some warts. This is sure to be one of those cult titles that “serious” gamers will refer to in the coming years as an underappreciated game, much like Alien Hominid or Psychonauts". (December 10, 2005)

- Review by Phil Theobald with overall score of 4.5/5. "With a lengthy quest (about 20 hours), a fun multiplayer mode, and scores of unlockable goodies (including some of the coolest alternate costumes ever), there is a lot to enjoy here. And don't let any talk about rejuvenating the franchise scare you away. This game more than lives up to the Onimusha name." (March 06, 2006)
