a question about what inspired penumbra

[Jusal]

I thought about reading that book but I never got started on it Need to do it sometime. As far as I know no inspirtation has come from that book.

The main inspiration for Penumbra is Lovecraftian in terms of making the main character very weak and vunerable. Also the horror tries to stay hidden so that the player himself has to imagine what lies ahead.

Everything described with the adjective "Lovecraftian" must be good.
