Games inspired by H P Lovecraft?

Post by equinox »

Would these be worth an "inspired by" category in the database?
I know of three, but there might be more:
  • Anchorhead
  • Lovecraft Mythos
  • The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath

Hi @equinox,

There is already an inspired by field. If you provide a list off titles on a spreadsheet with the appropriate ID then @Einar Saukas may well add it for you.

If you look at the advanced search on the homepage it's called License / Inspiration.

Yes, I must have expressed myself unclearly. I meant: is it worth adding H P Lovecraft in that existing category? Just a thought. I'm not going to make a spreadsheet for four or five games.

OK. No problems @equinox. If you change your mind, just send over the detail and we will get it added to.ZXDB.
