[SPECTRUM ONLY] Hello. If you want to send some of your games for review to WIDMO magazine: https://husaria-games.itch.io/widmo, you would like to be interviewed, etc., let me know at husaria.games.office@gmail.com. ABOUT GAMES: How can you do it? Send us the game by email, or share it on itch.io (better way). As for the games you send/you will share, we prefer only full versions, because we can't rely on a demo to play and review something. The game must be in English or Polish. We prefer games for every Sinclair device. But if it was to be ZX Spectrum NEXT, there is a condition that the game must run on an emulator. Best regards, the Husaria Games team
Al fin llegó el momento.
Vamos a sumergirnos en esta apasionante aventura y a perdernos por las calles de Innsmouth!!
Conozco este desarrollo desde que salió, concretamente lo conocí gracias al Spectrumero, pero aún no había podido darle un tiento.
Lo dicho; llegó el momento!
Gracias por hacernos evadirnos de la realidad con semejantes deasfíos.
Saludos desde el sur!!
Adelante amigo! Y esperamos que te guste. Este juego está hecho con mucho amor y trabajo 😊
Eso sí, guíate por el mapa de Innsmouth y no confíes en extraños.
Hi Guys, can't finish the game. Chapter 4 is a nightmare. It's randomly generated I guess, cant escape from Innsmouth. I tried the map to get clues. How do you actually finish this? followed the Walkthrough on Youtube, but it does not help. Everytime I load it up its random. Appreciated for any inputs
Don't worry, it's easier than it seems. There is nothing random in this game.
[Spoilers]
Look at the map all the time, and every street intersection. The streets croos Innsmouth from north to south and from east to west. Look for your location in each movement. Remember/take note of the location of natives, the deep ones and every barricade that blocks your way. Good luck!
Thx Guys for the reply, will try again later on. I loved this short story from Lovecraft when I first read it . let me say you guys did a wonderful job with the game, in relaying the tension and dread that I felt when I first read the story.Congrats and keep them comming. I usualy hate text adventures, but your games are unique.
Thank you very much for your words. We always try to improve in each new game 😊
I know I'm going to be the only person asking this, but, is there any chance of the game *not* trying to copy / update the ROM font? I use a custom ROM / font (Clairsys) on my +3 which makes some characters in the game unreadable.
No idea if this is a major change or not, but it's just 768 bytes somewhere (also no idea what the print routine looks like, but if it's updating chars from ROM on the fly, then obviously this change might be a bit more difficult) :-)
Sorry, there is no possibility to do that. As you say, the print routine changes *some* chars from ROM on the fly (however, other chars are completely redefined).
No worries, thanks! Any chance of a +3 disk version at some point? :-)
It's possible... In that case, we'll post it on this page 😀

😂 Muchas gracias por tus palabras! Y gracias también por jugarlo y dedicarle tiempo en tu canal 🐸
Good game, thanks. I also added it to my new "Gameplay of New ZX Spectrum Games from April 2024" video.
Wow... Thank you!
I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but I can only get to five locations. I’ve looked at the map and I can’t find any of those locations in the game.
Hi! You don't have to be doing something wrong. As you progress you will be able to access more locations on the map :)
Very nice game!
Thank you so much!
This period I play 'The Sinking City' on my PS5, and now this come to a pleasant surprise. Will definitely give it a try. Muchas gracias hermanos!!!
That's great! ;)
Gracias a ti, hermano!
You're welcome... Hahaha
Hi! Innsmouth looks and plays great, congratulations for your work. I'd like to know if there's a solution online or some hints. Thanks!
Thank you! I always advise reading the instructions and playing with the Innsmouth map on your desktop. Examine all the locations and objects, they have the key. I suppose soon you'll be able to watch videos online about how to finish the game ;-)
Tenía ganas de pillarme este juego.Te deseo mucho éxito con tu magnífica creación.
