The weekly recap (10/17/2022 - 10/23/2022) - Did you play MARVEL SNAP?
The protagonist is a composite hungry monster similar to an octopus, which breaking the glass of its containment capsule placed inside a complex research facility, will soon pour into everywhere because in order to live and increase its volume it needs to devour as much human prey as possible by extending its lethal tentacles; it is the result of a failed experiment in a top secret laboratory in the bowels of the earth. The paths and passages will not all be available immediately because the scientists will be shielded by dividing walls that will protect them from our inexorable fury. Furthermore, it emits a terrifying cry, a sort of threatening roar that expands beyond the ravines, hatches and bulkheads, both to channel the humans towards the direction it desires, and to exploit an ability that works like a kind of sonar capable of letting us locate what will be useful for our cause to get out of the impasse.  In some stages it will also be equipped with telekinesis, taking possession of only some of the scientists who will only be able to go up and down the stairs that divide the floors of the building or interact with scattered elements of the scenario, now to solve mini puzzles, now to examine some organic compounds scattered around the areas. The more it grows in volume, the more abilities it acquires such as throwing objects at prey, so watch out for armed guards, especially those with flamethrowers, lethal for our creature. They will try in every way to shrink you and make you helpless.

CLICKOLDING - WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST WITNESS!?

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.

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.

The next The Last of Us game has been canceled

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

FNAF INTO THE PIT - THE FIRST AND LAST TIME I'LL PLAY IT!

I've never found cheap jump scare games like Amnesia, FNAF, and many other titles to be particularly interesting, owing in part to my preference for atmospheric horror with good storytelling to being bombarded with loud noises every few seconds. This is the first time and it will be the last time that I will sit down to play a FNAF game. I do own a copy of prior games; however, I consider it more of a collection that just sits in my library than a game that I would like to play through because I know it's nothing special. There is not much here. This is simply a video game recreation of one of the books, with some eater eggs thrown in.

Your next trip to Hell just got postponed - Hellboy: Web of Wyrd now releasing October 18

We're pretty stoked for the upcoming new Hellboy game, Hellboy: Web of Wyrd. I mean, just look at this thing in action in the trailer above. It looks like the pages of Hellboy artist Mike Mignola's artwork come to life. If they can pull it off and make it fun, it's going to be killer. Unfortunately, though, we got news today that we'll have to wait just a little bit longer to find out whether they pulled it off or not. Originally planned to launch on October 4, Hellboy: Web of Wyrd has been pushed back two weeks to an October 18 release.

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.

A tense sci-fi walking simulator that you can finish in one sitting - Fort Solis Quick Review

SHOULD I PLAY FORT SOLIS? Fort Solis is absolutely worth playing, as long as you know the type of game you’re getting into. And that is, to be clear, a one hundred percent narrative game. Virtually all of the “gameplay” in Fort Solis is made up of walking around the titular creepy abandoned base on Mars, with a small handful of very simple puzzles and quick time events. That said, if you’re down for a creepy, suspenseful story, this one will get under your skin in all the best ways.

Uncover creepy radio signals in this sci-fi horror game - Oxenfree II: Lost Signals Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of sci-fi, analog horror, or just like narrative-focused games. Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is a direct sequel to the original Oxenfree, but it’s surprisingly friendly to newcomers. Set five years after the first game, Lost Signals follows two brand-new characters: small town handyman Jacob and stoic screw-up Riley. There are moments that will hit harder if you’ve played the original, but it’s not overly reliant on old material, and it should make for a satisfying experience even if you treat it as a standalone game.

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.

Civilization’s grand strategy meets QAnon-style conspiracy theories in this wonderful, weird game

SHOULD I PLAY THE FABULOUS FEAR MACHINE? Definitely give this game a shot if you enjoy pulp comics and grand strategy games. The Fabulous Fear Machine was created by Fictorama Studios, the same developers behind the equally unhinged and enjoyable Do Not Feed the Monkeys games. Like that game, The Fabulous Fear Machine is all about being in charge of a force with the power to shape the world. This time, though, you control that force on a much broader scale, slowly spreading your dark influence across a series of regional maps. It’s a brilliant twist that blends together

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.

The most original horror game I’ve played in ages - Killer Frequency Quick Review

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.

Dead Island 2 is proof that sometimes just killing tons of zombies is still enough

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

📖 Storyline: The story is overall really good but I don't want to explain much about it because everyone already knows. Cons: They don't have a full screen and the controls are a bit annoying and they need more DLCs and a sequel on mobile. 👍 Pros: The graphics match extremely well with the original one on PC and it's overall decently scary especially when playing in the dark on the janitor and the singing girl levels.🎮 Gameplay: the gameplay is surprisingly smooth and well made on mobile, it's very fun.
