7 Days to Die has seen quite a few changes since I started playing it over a decade ago. Some of the changes were great, others took me some time to get used to. The version I played recently was 2.4, and I don’t like all of the changes that were made since the lastContinue reading “A Good Horror Survival Game: 7 Days to Die”

A Scary and Creepy Visual Novel, The Letter
The Letter is a horror visual novel set in the United Kingdom. This makes for a great setting, but it caused some confusion for me as I had to look up a fair number of slang words. The game is also very long for a visual novel. It took close to 20 hours. It tookContinue reading “A Scary and Creepy Visual Novel, The Letter”
Still Wakes the Deep, A Spectacular Survival Horror Game
Still Wakes the Deep is an excellent survival horror game. I like the setting of the game being on an oil rig. It is a setting I have not seen in a horror game before. The story is pretty great. The game has a lot of character development, which made me feel like I knewContinue reading “Still Wakes the Deep, A Spectacular Survival Horror Game”
Detention, A Creepy and Unsettling Survival Horror Game
Detention is a point-and-click adventure game set in Taiwan during the White Terror of the 1960s. The game is split between two perspectives, which is nice, even though it is a short game. The story and gameplay are very good. TLDR: A Creepy Survival Horror Game based on Taiwanese History What was the White Terror?Continue reading “Detention, A Creepy and Unsettling Survival Horror Game”
The Best Indie Horror Games
I’ve been playing more indie games in the last few years. I find them to be much better than the AAA games. Big-budget games all feel the same, while indie games tend to take more chances in terms of subject matter and gameplay. This is an update from last year’s blog post on indie horrorContinue reading “The Best Indie Horror Games”
An Amazing and Creepy Visual Novel, Scarlet Hollow
Scarlet Hollow is a visual novel about a small mining town with a few secrets. You play as an outsider who happens to be a relative of the founding family who owns the coal mine.

Bahnsen Knights: The Weakest Part of a Spectacular Trilogy
Bahnsen Knights takes place in the late 1980s, the same world as Varney Lake and Mothmen 1966. However, this one feels different from the other games. It is less grounded in myth and legend and seems to adopt some religious cults that popped up in the 1960s, 1970s, 80s, and 90s. It is an interestingContinue reading “Bahnsen Knights: The Weakest Part of a Spectacular Trilogy”

Spooky Indie Horror Games to Creep You Out
There is something fun about being scared or creeped out. Whether it is sitting around a campfire telling the same scary stories or playing a survival horror game, there is something I find enjoyable about being scared. Indie games do a better job of taking the horror genre in different directions than the larger studios.Continue reading “Spooky Indie Horror Games to Creep You Out”
Frightening Atmosphere, Strange Facial Expressions | Call of Cthulhu
Call of Cthulhu is a survival horror game that, unsurprisingly, is based on the writings of H.P. Lovecraft. It is similar to the story The Shadow Over Innsmouth and the movie Dagon. I think it is closer to the film than the book. I streamed this game a while ago on Twitch, and I’ve returnedContinue reading “Frightening Atmosphere, Strange Facial Expressions | Call of Cthulhu”
