User Reviews

Reviewers praise Shoggoth Rising for addictive, fast-paced Lovecraftian shooter with strong visuals and short-session appeal. The main drawbacks are monetization (ads after paying) and occasional crashes or balance quirks. Overall, fans enjoy the concept and presentation and want smoother updates and more content.

Stunning graphics and atmosphere, with rain and lightning effects and optional ultra visuals
Lovecraft-inspired concept and monsters give the game unique appeal
Short, satisfying sessions perfect for quick play
Engaging shooter/defense hybrid with satisfying weapons and powers

Cons

Ads introduced after purchase/update; players expected a one-time buy to be ad-free
Occasional crashes or loading issues that need fixes
Unlocks feel too accessible; progression may be too easy
Some performance issues on certain devices or after updates

I rediscovered this one on my app history from back when I had an iPhone 4s I think. It’s still such a fun game. It’s simple but the graphics are awesome. Always fun to blast little alien sea creatures for a few minutes.

I purchased this game many years back for 2.99 and now it’s loaded with freakin ads!! I didn’t have b4, I am sick of this crap, buy once, and NO ADS!

One of the best Lovecraft games ever! Action packed with great graphics, making awesome combo.As much as episode 1 is great, episode 2 might be better with more monsters and new concepts.The designs and story are impressive,too. Need more monsters like,say, Cthulhu?Maybe add some spice like Dagon and his partner a Hydra?Couple of Cthulhi plus water deities?A Dreamlands mode in story would be nice! More episodes would inspire a trilogy in the series.
