About this game
In 1834, in the small New England fishing village of Illsmouth, the distinguished British scientist Lord Boleskine lost his mind.
After studying ancient manuscripts of evil repute, he had travelled to this place to observe the passing of Halley's comet.

What he observed that night, however, turned him into a raving lunatic.
Now, 76 years later, Halley's comet is coming back, and young reporter John T.
Parker has travelled to Illsmouth to try to uncover the truth in Boleskine's wild claims, and see the comet for himself.
Shadow of the Comet is a horror adventure game, inspired by the terrifying writings of H.
Contrary to many adventure games from the early 90s, the game has a keyboard driven interface with a system of actions activated either by pressing the corresponding key (L for look, G for get, T for talk, U for use) or selecting them from the menu activated by the TAB key.
The CD release was enhanced with a mouse-driven interface.
Typical for Infogrames titles (e.g.
Eternam ), the game contains vector-based cut scenes with enlarged graphics of the faces of the speakers during dialogues.
The GOG.com release of this game includes both Floppy and CD versions of the game.
The main differences are new graphics, mouse-driven interface and full voice-acting whereas the Floppy version doesn't feature any voice-acting.
The CD version's launcher screen additionally includes a Museum mini-game where character can walk through a museum and look at various mystical objects and paintings inspired by H.
About PC
PC gaming spans over four decades, from early DOS titles to today's massive Steam and digital-storefront libraries. Because "PC" covers everything from 1990s CD-ROM releases to current AAA titles, it's the single largest platform by game count on Gamevaro. For collectors, PC gaming splits into two very different worlds: physical big-box releases from the 1990s and 2000s (increasingly collectible, especially complete-in-box with original manuals and inserts) and the modern digital library, which Gamevaro tracks for portfolio and spending purposes even though it has no resale market.
Gamevaro tracks Calling (itch) for PC with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Calling (itch) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PC release dates back to 2020.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
