One of my favourite web series that discusses games and game mechanics tackles Cthulhu. This is a nice How to use Cthulhu 101, especially in video games.

I love Extra Credits, I haven't watched their stuff in ages. The episode was pretty cool. I hope some game developers take the advice there and really make a good CoC inspired game. Only one that came close was Eternal Darkness. That game messed with you on so many levels. Shame the spiritual successor didn't get funded.... Here's the link in case you didn't know about it: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/61 ... eternals-0 It has some of the trailers on it and it looked cool.
I also liked the Dark Corners of the Earth game. That Escape from Innsmouth level was nerve racking when you didn't even have a weapon and was running through hotel rooms bolting doors behind you. I still get chills. Once you got a gun though its turned to your basic FPS fare. You even go tow to toe with a Shoggoth lol.
