Paranormal Clean Up Review

Developer Manic Mice, who have brough a fair share of horror titles to the table have done it yet again. True to their specialty, Paranormal Clean Up throws you into the shoes of one of four cleaners, sent to take out the trash on both a physical- and perhaps "spiritual" level. Players familiar with more traditional job simulators will feel right at home, and perhaps fans of titles such as Paranormal Activity will as well. Though personally, I found this much more of a unique twist off of a cleaning sim than the other way around.  So while there may be

Stygian: Outer Gods Review

In the distance, a low roar spilled across the skies, echoing it’s foreboding song. Despite this, the boat rocked quietly along it’s appointed path, my gaze diverted to the pages below me. I was scarcely aware of any present company, nor the foreboding cast that grew in the sky overhead as we drew closer to our destination: Kingsport.Long estranged since our youth, Victoria had convinced me along on this excursion; with some guilt, I’ll admit I still find it hard to resist her feminine charm.

DeathOmen Review

 DeathOmen is a new first person psychological horror game by Brazilian indie developer Jeff Winner, and publisher CreativeForge Games. I received a key for the demo, and after a few minutes of playing I was thinking “meh”. But then a slow dread started to sink in, and suddenly something happened that I haven’t experienced in a long time - a jump scare actually caused me to jump! There are some issues here including a shallow story and some uninspired gameplay, but a good horror atmosphere wasn’t one of them.YOU CAN NEVER BE TOO CAREFULThe game takes place within a small house.

The Lies We Tell Ourselves Review

THE PAST CAN HURT. YOU CAN EITHER RUN FROM IT, OR LEARN FROM IT. The Lies We Tell Ourselves is a first person, narrative driven, psychological horror game created by solo developer Poopsy. Available now on Steam is the first of three planned stand alone chapters. This game is not going to be for everyone. There will be players who love it, players who don’t get it and hate it, and players who fall somewhere in the middle. I was in the latter group for a good portion of the 3 hours it took me to complete the game, but my mind

Go Home Annie Review

YOU'LL COME FOR THE HORROR BUT STAY FOR EVERYTHING ELSEI’m currently obsessed with horror, so I was excited to try Go Home Annie, a newly released first-person, horror adventure game available on Steam, Epic and Gog. After playing, I'd have a hard time calling this a true horror game. There are a few jump scares and some mild gore, but it never generated any feelings of dread. It was, however, packed with plenty of other things I love - amazing creepy visuals, awesome audio, a wide variety of interesting puzzles, platforming, exploration and a good story.  Developed by Misfit Village and
