Shadow of the Comet

Shadow of the Comet is a classic point-and-click adventure game developed by Infogrames and released for MS-DOS in 1993. Set in the eerie New England town of Illsmouth in 1910, the story follows British journalist John T. Parker, who arrives to photograph Halley's Comet—but quickly finds himself entangled in a chilling Lovecraftian mystery.

Inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft, the game blends supernatural horror with investigative gameplay, challenging players to uncover dark secrets, solve intricate puzzles, and survive encounters with ancient cults and cosmic horrors. With richly detailed graphics, atmospheric sound design, and a gripping narrative, Shadow of the Comet stands as a cult classic of early '90s PC gaming.
