The Thing from Nowhere

The Thing from Nowhere is a Choose Your Own Adventure game inspired by monster movies from the 1950s and the Amiga classic It Came from the Desert.

In the summer of 1952, something strange is happening in the small Alaskan village of Joy.

A young girl believes she has seen a Qalupalik, an ancient Inuit monster known for kidnapping children. Most people disregard the report as the result of a child's overactive imagination.

But not you! You're an intrepid cryptozoologist following in the footsteps of your parents, who were pioneers in the field. This could be the opportunity you've been longing for!

Excited, you travel to the remote settlement, determined to unravel the mystery behind the sighting and find evidence of the creature's existence.

As you ponder nature's wonders and doze off to sleep during your flight, the words of a biblical prophecy form in your mind like a warning: "The meek shall inherit the Earth...".Features
