PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, unless you’re too scared. Like previous releases from developer Frictional Games, Amnesia: The Bunker is not for the faint of heart. Some fans worried about the announcement of this fourth game in the Amnesia series, particularly when it was revealed that it would be the first game in the franchise to give players a weapon. Those fears were misplaced, though; the limited ammunition and other defensive options in

Developer The Astronauts hasn't put out a game since 2014's brilliant adventure game The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Their next project has finally entered early access, though, and it's very cool and very different from their last release...in a good way! The new game is titled Witchfire, and while it shares spooky vibes with The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, the core of the game is a roguelike shooter. If that change sounds jarring, you should know that much of the team at The Astronauts was previously at developer People Can Fly, the studio behind satisfyingly over-the-top shooters like

SHOULD I PLAY UNSORTED HORROR? Play it if you like horror games at all. I mean, it’s totally free, what do you have to lose? Unsorted Horror is a compilation of five brief but memorable horror experiences created by developer Mike Klubnika. While the actual gameplay is somewhat minimal here, the sense of atmosphere that Klubnika builds is second to none. This free collection operates as a first glimpse of someone who is likely to become a major name in the world of horror games, so you might as well get on board now.

I couldn’t blame anyone for feeling a bit of zombie fatigue. Even after a decades-long nonstop drip of movies, TV shows, comics, and games about the living dead, there’s always more in the pop culture pipeline. Last year saw the series finale of The Walking Dead after over twelve years on TV, but it has spin-offs in the works. Even if it didn’t, the TV adaptation of The Last of Us quickly blew up as

We're always looking for the perfect game for the Halloween season, and it doesn't get much more perfect than World of Horror. In the works for years now, World of Horror is like a love letter to everything about the horror genre—but with a special focus on the unsettling body horror of manga artist Junji Ito and the unspeakable cosmic horror of author H.P. Lovecraft. What's most amazing about World of Horror is what it accomplishes with so little, though. The visuals are extremely lo-fi—in fact, the game's black-and-white art was literally created using MS Paint! Despite those humble tools, though, solo developer Panstasz has created some memorable and truly disturbing imagery.

SHOULD I PLAY WORLD OF HORROR? Love Junji Ito? Can’t get enough of Lovecraft? If you’re a fan of terrifying tales, World of Horror is a game you won’t want to miss. An old god has turned its gaze on your sleepy Japanese town, and it’s up to you to investigate the creepy events happening around you. Why is your neighbor suddenly hoarding eels? What’s up with the scissor-carrying lady that’s been wandering around your school?

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? I strongly recommend skipping The Outlast Trials for now, unless you have a group of three other friends who all love the previous Outlast games and who are all available to play together at the same time. The Outlast Trials is a bold experiment for developer Red Barrels, taking the basic elements of its stealth horror franchise and adding co-op and live service elements for the first time. Unfortunately, that experiment is a failure, at least in its current state.

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.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Skip this one for sure. Greyhill Incident is a first-person horror story that tells a tale of alien invasion in a rural farm community. The setting and many of the set pieces seem heavily inspired Signs, M. Night Shyamalan’s 2002 alien horror flick. But like many of Shyamalan’s worst films, Greyhill Incident suffers from wooden dialogue, questionable acting, and a frustrating, illogical plot that never really seems to go anywhere, among other problems.

UnHoly Neighborhood emerges as a distinctive entry in the realm of point-and-click adventure puzzle mystery games, offering players a captivating journey through a gloomy neighborhood teeming with surreal elements. Background Story: The narrative centers around Peter Grim, the protagonist on a quest to solve the mysterious kidnapping of his wife, confront a strange storm, and navigate a city overrun by giant rats. The dark riddles of the neighborhood serve as the backdrop to this intriguing storyline.

Last week, I shared a rundown of some of the problems gamers and critics were having with Redfall, the new vampire-focused, co-op looter shooter from Arkane Studios. At the time I was around seven hours into the game, and while some of the issues being raised were obviously legitimate, I was still surprised to be enjoying myself and had some hope that maybe I would like it more than the average on the whole.

With the popularity of this year's HBO TV adaptation, The Last of Us is arguably as popular as its ever been. But even popularity can't saved a doomed project. In a blog post today, developer Naughty Dog revealed that the long-in-development The Last of Us Online has been canceled. This project had been in development for several years now and was seen by many as a replacement for the "Factions" multiplayer mode from the original

SHOULD I PLAY HEAVEN DUST 2? This one’s definitely worth checking out, especially if you’re interested in Resident Evil 2 but have been put off by the sheer amount of terror and gore. In fact, just imagine the chibi version of Resident Evil 2 and you’ve got a pretty accurate picture of Heaven Dust 2, which is about a guy who wakes up in a zombie-infested research facility and has to solve a bunch of bizarre puzzles to escape, all while avoiding being munched on by the walking dead.

In 'Cryptic Route,' you find yourself as the protagonist driving through a rainy night forest without realizing there's no reason behind it. In the passenger seat, there may only be a shovel and a charger, and there's nothing you can do about any affiliations or missions that might have a future. The only thing you can rely on is the organized navigation system in the car. With each turn, you face eerie and unsettling situations, making critical decisions that determine the outcome of your journey. The game's multiple ending system ensures that every choice you make leads to different outcomes, preventing any hindrance results. 'Cryptic Route' challenges players to uncover secrets by exploring the unknown and deciphering the mystery involving the protagonist.

CLICKOLDING Developer: Strange Scaffold Publisher:  Strange Scaffold Released: July 16th, 2024 Price: $2.99 USD As I prepared to load up the recently released CLICKOLDING, I had a fundamental understanding of what it was all about and what I was getting myself into. This is a play on the concept of being or taking part in the act that is commonly referred to as "cuckolding," but the twist is that it is portrayed in this game as the act of clicking.

Back Again, with your latest bit of Indie Investigating. This time, it's Team 17 Digital's darkly funny narrative title 'Killer Frequency'- which takes the campy idea of a Slash Plot, and has a good bit of fun with it. Tune In, Check Out, Leave a Not-So-Pretty Corpse While there's plenty of stories in Gallows Creek- none invoke quite as much fear as that of 'The Whistling Man', a serial killer who ran rampant in the 50's, before the police were finally able to put him down.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re even the slightest fan of horror games. Killer Frequency is an incredibly unique first-person horror game where you take on the role of a small-town night-shift radio DJ. There’s just one twist: A killer is stalking the town during your shift, and all of the town’s 911 calls are being routed through to your station. This means a lot of the “action” is just standing behind a desk, picking which tunes to play and trying to keep innocent people alive with your words alone. Don’t let the limited setting fool you, though; this is a deeply creative game that kept surprising me with new challenges.

I’ve been playing Resident Evil games since the series really hit its stride with 1998’s Resident Evil 2, so when a game comes along that clearly loves and manages to capture what made that series special, it’s automatically on my radar. Based on my time with the demo version of Heaven Dust, it manages to do just that, with a mobile-friendly spin on survival horror that’s clearly deeply in debt to the first
