I'll always have a soft spot for this game, despite the simple fact that it IS objectively bad it's EXTREMELY constrained in its linearity, contains illogical plot paths, and just feels rushed and incomplete. I get the sense that this game was meant to be rather epic, but went through Dev-Hell. I bet it got close to being scrapped more than once.
You can see evidence of this in things like your Library in the Inventory menu, which has about 20 or 30 more spaces than there are items for it!
@1Heretic Haha AND if you happen to have any knowledge of magic and the occult, the game gets even neater! Remember the Spirits of the Day and the magic grimoire showing you how to summon the spirits?
I'm not gonna say that is has any kind of historical veracity, cuz it don't :P. BUT, for any average practitioner of Chaos Magic, the fictional grimoire is a perfectly viable magic system!
Thank you for doing a walkthrough of this game, it's so nostalgic, and I think this one has the best graphics for the PlayStation out of all the adventure games I've played. This is not my favourite one though, as after the bungalow it gets a bit too weird and I don't think it is any good towards the end, just annoying. Anyway, it's awesome you're doing this, 1st person adventure games are so rare, I only have 9 of them.
@AdventureGameFan8 thank for uploading this. i got this game when i was like 8 and after that i lost it. i searched on youtube for necronomican but nothing came up. so thank you :)

@Xandermorph to be honest i believe that somehow is incomplete on purpose, they want you to look at some things to find them for their own reasons

Who the fuck pays 40 dollars in 1920 for a map and a location. That grocer is a cheap little bitch.

@gizelbelcoot There are no subs in the game. I wasn't too happy about that either...

@AdventureGameFan8 Yeah I agree this game NEEDED subtitles on account of the sound being JUST BARELY fucking audible much of the time...
