Our take on The Quivering
A gateway opened during recreational chemistry experiments releases creatures from Dimension X, while Spud must reverse his uncle's transformation into a raven.
What is The Quivering?
In the eerie settlement of Warty Hollow, Spud undertakes a retro point-and-click adventure involving his transformed uncle, Olivetti Franken-Stamp.
A mishap during Olivetti’s chemistry work opened a passage to Dimension X, bringing werewolves, mummies, ghouls, demons, vampires, zombies, skeletons, and swamp creatures into the world.
