At the Mountains of Madness is a PC-based horror action adventure game. This is the Team Clockworks debut project.
According to the title, the game is an adaptation of the horror story In the mountains of madness, one of the most famous works of Howard Philips Lovecraft. The plot revolves around a scientific expedition to Antarctica, organized in 1930 by the University of Miscanthus. We play the role of its commander - professor of geology named William Dryer. During the campaign, she will discover the title Mountains of Madness, higher than the Himalayas and defending access to the mysterious ruins of a civilization much older than humanity.
Released on PC platform At the Mountains of Madness is an action adventure game enriched with survival elements. The events are observed from the first-person perspective. While playing, our task is to explore locations in search of fossils and discover places where no man has yet arrived. The realization of these ambitions is not easy, because many dangers await the hero's life. The first is the harsh climatic conditions. The action takes place in Antarctica, at very low temperatures, which are aggravated by occasional snowstorms. The player must ensure that the hero receives warmth and food. At the right moments it is also necessary to find shelter and light a bonfire. All this requires searching for useful items such as food cans, firewood and flashlight batteries.
While playing, we also collect weapons to fight enemies, which include both aggressive animals and much more dangerous monsters. The latter category is extremely difficult to kill and it is often much better to avoid confrontation, which forces a stealthy approach.
During the game, the player also has the opportunity to explore many labyrinth-like caves and ruins, and their layout is generated procedurally, so that we always face new challenges. In addition, there are adventure elements. During the campaign we come across puzzles on a regular basis. Some of them require clever use of found objects, while others take the form of logical mini-games based on manipulation of various mechanisms.
At the Mountains of Madness is based on the Unreal Engine 4 engine, allowing authors to create large open spaces and take advantage of modern graphics effects. In addition, the gameplay is enriched by a realistic physics engine that plays a role both in combat and in solving puzzles. For example, some obstacles can be destroyed by dynamite.
