After searching the forums and even trying out a few different Google queries, I absolutely cannot find a link to download this game. The main download page here is broken, going to a "Cannot find this file!" page.

I wouldn't normally resurrect a thread like this, but this game (this very thread, actually) was linked to from 1up's annual 101 Free Games article, and there's probably going to be a lot of people trying to find this one.

I've been wondering about this myself, but after a bit more poking around, I found a torrent of quite a few games that were being showcased in The Commonplace Book Competition, this game included. It only has one seed, but eh, what can you do.

Ooh, the torrent. That's not a bad download, either. It's a little on the large side, but there's a fair few quality games in there along with Clatter.

Also, Huzzah! 1UP and Scott Sharkey - introducing folks to little known indie games since Two-Thou-Sand-Seven.

I've rehosted it and put a new download link in the first post. Thanks to whoever is still hosting the torrent(!).

It's a great idea, but for some reason all the typed and captured words are just black squares... if you ever plan to update it. Ages ago I was dreaming about a game you had to type a sentence to relate two ideas, this game is mush more practical!
I dont get the Lovecraft-love, seems closer to this if anything;

It's done in Game Maker, and I probably wasn't as careful as I should have been in writing the graphics stuff with surfaces and blending in a way that is guaranteed to work on other computers - this can be temperamental in GM. I probably won't get around to updating it at this point.

The Lovecraft theme is there because it was made for a Lovecraft competition.
