Isometric Survival Indie Horror! Survive the Undead! | Heaven Dust 2 Quick Review!

Heaven’s Dust 2 is what happens when Resident Evil meets RPG Maker. Heaven’s Dust 2 is an isometric survival horror game with puzzle-solving elements that are a clear homage to the classic Resident Evil games. The premise is very similar too. The isometric camera angle helps illustrate and bring to life the environments you encounter but also deliver you important visual information at the same time. Because puzzle-solving is the primary way to progress in Heaven’s Dust 2, you will always be on the lookout for clues and objects of interest. But, at the same time, it can be annoying to deal with when trying to navigate the sprawling and convoluted map.

Misguided | Android

This is the mobile remake of the iconic psychological horror game developed by Enigmatic Studio. This remastered version delivers a haunting narrative experience, improving graphics, audio, and fluidity compared to the original. It's essentially a first-person horror game with strong exploratory elements and environmental puzzles, designed to immerse us in a constantly tense and disturbing atmosphere. Everything revolves around a nameless protagonist who wakes up in a seemingly abandoned building, with no memory of how he got there. From the first minutes, a sense of disorientation sets in: silent corridors, flickering lights, and rooms that seem to change layout. Through scattered documents, audio recordings, and sudden visions, we discover that the place is linked to psychological experiments and traumatic events from the past. The protagonist seems to have a direct connection to what happened: fragments of memory gradually emerge, revealing a story of guilt, mental manipulation, and distorted reality. The narrative plays heavily on ambiguity: is what we see real or a figment of the protagonist's mind?  Sudden appearances and environmental changes help maintain the tension until the finale, where the pieces of the puzzle come together in a revelation as disturbing as it is surprising. The gameplay is structured primarily in first-person, with free exploration of the environments, collection of key objects, solving environmental puzzles, and scripted events and sudden moments of tension. There is no combat here. The setting is one of the game's strengths: claustrophobic corridors, dark rooms, realistic ambient sounds, and a key audio component. The remastered version improves textures, dynamic lighting, and stability on modern devices, making the experience more immersive. I recommend it to lovers of narrative psychological horror. It doesn't focus on excessive jump scares, but on a constant atmosphere of unease and mystery. The remaster enhances an already interesting project, making it more accessible and fluid on mobile. A short but intense experience, capable of leaving a lasting impression, especially for those who love ambiguous and profound stories.

Death Stranding is still better on PlayStation, but the iOS version isn’t a total loss

When I first heard that legendary game developer Hideo Kojima was creating a postapocalyptic open-world game starring The Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus, I was through the roof with excitement. And yet, when that game finally launched in 2019, with a pandemic looming right around the corner, it somehow slipped my radar. Who could’ve guessed that just over four years later, a full, triple-A console game like

TapTap Game of the Year 2023 #4: Alan Wake II - the best action game of 2023

Alan Wake II starts off like a gritty detective serial, but it doesn’t take long for reality to break down completely. It whisks players along on a surreal adventure through dreams and memories that is at turns terrifying, grandiose, and hilarious. It’s the rare game that defies genre boundaries and illustrates the incredible power of video games as a new storytelling medium, one that can draw inspiration from older forms while never being constrained by them.

MONONEKO - A GOREY CUPHEAD STYLED RHYTHM GAME

A game about getting revenge on Yokai and cat murderers on numerous fronts. How much more challenging may this be in the future? That is the primary question here, given that it is barely functioning at times, crashing and failing to award you with gold coins which helps you improve your effects on each run. MonoNeko is both bright and full of dark depictions, with the premise of reviving killed cats and using them as a little army to defeat those who have done this evil act. Putting that notion aside, it was really rather enjoyable, even if it did seem like an very early access game with a lot of room for growth if they decide to actually work on it.

PAPER LILY CHAPTER 1 - YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!

Game: Paper Lily: Chapter 1 Platform: PC Genre: Free to Play, Psychological Horror, Adventure, 2D Overview I believe many are hesitant to try new games, particularly those that look and feel like games they have grown to dislike, such as most RPGmaker games, which are better described as games with little attention to detail or charm, using the same assets and boring generic characters regardless of the story behind them most of the time. I've seen several people say that this is an

PSYCHOPOMP GOLD — IT ISN'T A SEQUEL SADLY

If you love it, support it. I didn't like it very much cause I was expecting something that wasn't just a slightly remastered version of the original. I'll still support the dev, I still like what the original had to offer and the rest of the content that was added in is sure to appeal to the die hard fans, but this wasn't for me and I don't think it would be for most people, who want more than the free version offers.

Better than Starfield, Lethal Company has surpassed 120k simultaneous online players

The most worthwhile shooting game to play recently is not Call of Duty, but the comically horrifying game Lethal Company, which has broken through 120,000 simultaneous online players. This is a pixel-art-style indie game. The game's backstory is set in outer space, where you are an employee of an unscrupulous company, scavenging waste in a barren land, and doing the risky business of exchanging life for money. Humans are not the only creatures on this planet, nor are you the only scavenger on the wasteland. Therefore, how to "cooperatively" get along with these creatures and humans, survive, and make it home after work is the focal point of the game.

MOUTHWASHING - A GENUINELY GREAT HORROR STORY

It's that time of the year again, when we start to get a taste of horror from many different angles. Sometimes all you need is a simple concept, reminiscent of the age when Horror was at it's peak in gameplay design and execution during the Playstation 1 rise. Mouthwashing is a lot of things... It's short, atmospheric, exhilarating, and highly captivating in terms of drawing you closer to each character while simultaneously making you feel detached from them in unexpected ways.

Heaven Dust 2: Striking Similarity to the Original

In 2020, the video game "Heaven Dust" boldly posed the inquiry, "What would happen if "Resident Evil 1" were presented with a top-down camera perspective?" The resultant offering manifested as a proficient action-adventure, notably more accessible than its muse due to the perpetual visibility of zombies. Presently, the emergence of "Heaven Dust 2" initiates a subsequent query—"What if the "Heaven Dust" narrative unfolded within a more expansive mansion?" Consequently, this sequel lacks the endearing qualities found in its forerunner. "Heaven Dust 2" unfolds in the aftermath of its predecessor, with the protagonist, Steve, awakening from the cryo pod wherein he had been confined after an abduction by corporate operatives. He discovers himself within another mansion besieged by rampant zombies. Regrettably, those anticipating a setting akin to a city immersed in a zombocalypse reminiscent of "Resident Evil 2" will likely find themselves disillusioned by the sequel's thematic choice.
