About Tentacult!

Looking out on Pleasantville one afternoon, Lord Cthulhu realized he was very lonely. He decides to send a single Tentacute to go make new friends with these "Bonies." After enough friends have been made, the portal to R'lyeh opens &each friend will be sacrificed. In a style that is a cross between "Hotline Miami" and "Pikmin", convert your friends into fellow cute cephalopods! The problem? All of your newly converted friends are frickin' morons that mimic your every move! Luckily with strategic planning you can manipulate them against the environment to get back to the portal home to keep Lord Cthulhu company.

✦ AI summary

This quirky Lovecraftian-themed game offers entertaining humor and an amusing concept that appeals to fans of cosmic horror, though it suffers from significant technical issues including glitches and physics problems that can break progression. Players generally find it acceptable for the price despite its rough edges, with some praising its fun premise while others are frustrated by the buggy gameplay and map collision problems.

It's like Pikmin for people who enjoy Lovecraft and/or tentacles.

It's okay for the price but there are just too many ways to fall between the map layers and break the game right now.
