Having played INSIDE before, I decided to give Limbo a try despite knowing how frustrating it’s going to be, and I unsurprisingly found myself tugging my hair each time I missed a jump only by a split-second or got insta-killed by an unpredictable environmental hazard. However, dying is part of Limbo’s charm in addition to its brain-melting, physics-based puzzles that require dexterity, logical problem solving skills, perfect timing and a holy amount of trial and error which can be frustrating to idiots like me.

It’s funny how I can play Outlast without batting an eyelid but I was utterly shocked by the brutal deaths in this gloomy 2D puzzle platformer - perhaps because you’re often blessed with the gruesome sight of the boy’s rag doll corpse flying around when you’d least expect it. Much like every other aspect of the game varying from the simple controls and minimal story-telling to its short length, the B&W graphics are also very simplistic yet so eerily pretty, as if conveying the message that sometimes ”less is more”.

I would’ve hoped for a clearer insight into Limbo’s fascinating world as well as a more forgiving approach to the timed puzzles like in its follower INSIDE, but this surely is a thrilling experience for those who love a bit of horror-ish puzzling and cursing. I know, I’m sorry, Mom.

I’d kept an eye on Stray for some time, unsure whether or not a horror lover like me should invest in this semi-open world, neon-colored and cyberpunk-themed cat game. But when it was released with everyone being so hyped about it, I had no other choice but join the community. And I have zero regrets.

Visually, Stray is like eye candy; the vibrant cityscapes are so beautiful that you’ll find yourself lost in the details. Owing to an excellent audio, cat-chy tunes and exploration-heavy game play, you’ll get immersed in a bleak future where robots live like humans in an underground city, perfected with a few simple puzzles and survival sequences to keep things interesting. Nevertheless, Stray is nothing too demanding for an overall relaxing experience. The narrative putting a heavy emphasis on non-verbal cues, I like how simply and understandably social and environmental issues are presented in a game that looks more superficial and unimpactful than it actually is.

If you like cats, you should buy this - it’s a good enough reason. Think about it: you can meow, scratch, climb, sleep, make a mess, nuzzle and do cute cat things as an adorable little furball that is, in my humble opinion, a well-animated representation of a humanized real-life cat. There’s nothing better than getting to be a small four-legged creature in a large and curious world, right?

The title sums up my experience. You play as a soldier named Henri who wakes up in an underground World War 1 bunker full of unpredictable horrors. Dread will accompany you wherever you decide to venture in the semi-open world since the Beast, unpredictable in its nature and hair-raising in its design, is drawn both to the dark and the sounds you make. The Amnesia series is about balancing the light and dark, handling it in a fresh yet utterly stressful way in its most recent entry.

As for the gameplay, The Bunker surpasses its predecessors greatly by introducing crafting, tools, traps, firearms, scarce resources, omnipresent enemy AI, non-linearity and freedom to tackle the obstacles in different ways. However, be mindful that this is no action game; you have barely enough bullets to defend yourself in an emergency so it’s better to resort to stealth. On the downside, though, are the small map, lack of environmental variety, bland story and constant back-tracking to the only save room to fill the generator and store items. It’s probably just me, but trekking through the same halls of the bunker often felt like a chore rather than an adventure.

Amnesia: The Bunker is frustrating to play on higher difficulty levels so start with easy or normal. Since I’m not a fan of open-world survival horror with weapons, I’m glad Frictional Games took into account the more casual side of the gaming community by adding the easy mode and accessibility options. While not entirely my cup of tea, I think The Bunker is a genuinely amazing and nerve-wracking game to suffer through. And you will die. A lot, I mean.

Where should I start with this review? Hmm, I think I’ll just say that this game has left me in a state of utter confusion. Despite not having much experience of visual novels, I still feel entitled to declare this game as one of the best ones in the genre. The art is pretty, plentiful and a bit rough around the edges, conveying something meaningful, matching its abstract and deep narrative.

Although there's so much going on, it's balanced perfectly. On one hand, the story is about dying, ending worlds and slaying princesses in a time-loop, but on the other hand, it dives so much deeper under its shallow surface, asking big questions about transformation, identity, pain, death, love and existence. The way you act around the Princess will make her show one of her many terrifying forms – whichever side you manage to coax out of her will lead you to a path of unique horrors. What counterbalances the twistedness of the game’s perspective is the meta-awareness of the Narrator and the other voices as they keep breaking the fourth wall and bickering with one another as if in a pitch-black comedy.

All in all, Slay the Princess is a weird, perfect, novel, absurd and genius horror game that will make you sink into a philosophical swamp. It’s a messed up love story that gets under your skin and creeps you out all the time with its creative and intangible concepts bordering on something that is difficult to put into words. I’ve never played anything like this before and probably never will.

What at first looked like a nondescript 2D side-scroller turned out to be one of my all-time favorite titles. The first impression of Detention might fool you with a minimalist art style and simple point-and-click mechanics, yet its terrifying atmosphere, eerie soundscape and gut-wrenching narrative will make you have second thoughts once you start playing.

As the story slowly progresses, it acquires so many layers of underlying, even symbolistic meanings that you’ll have to rack your brain to make sense of it all; it tells us a tale of an impactful period in Taiwan’s bloody history and works as a uniting bridge between generations. There is a blend of historical, political, spiritual, psychological and even philosophical elements, and you start to question the morality of the main character’s past actions and her state of mind. Despite the clever scares, what really sets Detention apart from other representatives of the same genre is the oppressing setting paired with an unrivaled ambience. However, what bothered me personally was the lack of hostile spirits in the last levels that leaned more towards story-telling. It’s not that every horror game needs a constant threat to be scary, I just happened to enjoy the unique encounters so much it left me craving for more.

It’s quite hard to determine what makes Detention such a treat – I almost finished the entire game in one sitting which is unheard of in my case. It was simply so good I couldn’t stop even at the expense of my good night's sleep. So trust me and the other reviewers when we tell you to buy this game. You won’t regret it.

Developed by the same company that made Until Dawn, The Quarry had been sitting on my wishlist for a while, promising a gory teen horror set in the middle of the perilous woods where a group of unfortunate teenagers must fight off blood-thirsty monsters to make it out alive to the next morning. Such as in any other choice game, there are branching storylines with a load of small and big decisions to make, some of which lead to surprising and, quite frankly, even absurd scenarios.

Apart from a few awkward out-of-syncs, missing textures and other annoying bugs, The Quarry ran with tolerable smoothness. The narrative is amusing enough to keep you playing, especially with the evidence and clues you collect and piece together during your journey - although the end result was nothing ground-breaking and somewhat predictable. The characters are typical teenagers, but I still found myself drawn to their varying personalities and delectable interactions. The gameplay itself consists of watching cutscenes with a handful of decision-makings and QTEs as well as occasional free-roaming and even shooting. That is to say, The Quarry is anything but challenging, and you’ll be aided by an unknown party who foretells the possible future based on the tarot cards you find on your strolls.

To tell the truth, The Quarry is an average horror experience with a delightfully disturbing concept featuring werewolves rarely seen in the types of games I play, but gameplay- and storywise, it offers nothing new and feels more like an interactive movie. Don’t take me wrong; I still had a good time failing and reproaching myself for killing my favorites, so this is definitely worth buying when the price sinks to a more reasonable level.

I’ll start this review by clarifying that I have neither an overly critical nor demanding taste yet Penumbra: Requiem still managed to leave me with mixed feelings. I dove into this short expansion of Black Plague with an open mind but soon realized where all this unfavorable feedback stemmed from; Frictional Games, my all-time favorite developer, has truly disappointed me this once.

It can be somewhat hard to discern why Requiem feels so disconnected from its predecessors. First off, there are no enemies that would keep you on your toes although environmental hazards are as deadly as ever – at first, I thought that maybe it doesn’t matter, maybe the puzzles and story will make up for the lack of fear factor! Oh boy, I was wrong… Requiem has barely anything new to add to Philip’s lore, and whatever lazy story-telling there is, it just makes zero sense. Secondly, while the gameplay is not bad per se, it’s just eye-wateringly tedious, and even though the puzzles are well-thought-out and creative, some of them can get annoying pretty fast. Apart from a few collectibles, the devs ensured that you don’t have to worry about stumbling upon any resources or notes. Lastly, I also want to point out that most of the time I felt like I was jumping up levels in a low-budget 3D puzzle platformer. Are we even talking about the same series anymore?

As much as I hate to leave a negative review, I cannot recommend this game for the aforementioned reasons. If you are a die-hard fan of the Penumbra series, you might want to check out the canonical ending which was honestly the only worthwhile thing to experience. Otherwise, I suggest you save your time and leave this one be.

Directly continuing the gripping story of Philip, Penumbra: Black Plague settles on a darker and scarier ambiance of underground shelters, introducing a more psychological element to the series while retaining the physics-based puzzles (though easier and more logical), butt-clenching tension and level design familiar to anyone who has played the first episode. This experience messes with your mind in a way that once again proves that Frictional Games knows what it’s doing, however, the execution occasionally falls flat due to its old graphics and silly bugs.

On the plus side, the narrative becomes much more intriguing as it goes on. The enemies, known as the Infected, are technically more terrifying than the mutant animals with their own weapons and flashlights to spot you hiding in a pitch-black corner, but you can easily evade and outrun them so they didn’t pose much threat in my opinion. . Another downside is that I felt like all the good sneaking parts of Overture had been turned into chase puzzles or stripped-down survival sequences, meaning that, most of the time, the enemies aren’t breathing down your neck - but luckily there are other types of hazards that can kill you unexpectedly.

There’s no denying that Penumbra: Black Plague puts you in such uncomfortable situations that your anxiety levels soar up to the sky. It’s a solid game all in all, but perhaps it was my high expectations that made me feel a tingle of disappointment at the end. Most people claim that this one is better than the first, but I have to disagree. While it’s not remarkably worse, I don’t see how it was improved apart from removing the clunky combat system I never relied on in the first place.

Sherlock Holmes The Awakened is a remake of an older game going by the same title made by the same studio, Frogwares. At first, my decision to purchase this game at full price was made more out of willingness to support the Ukrainian developers, but after playing through this wonderfully dreadful journey, I think that it was money well spent. I haven’t played detective games before, but this one caught my eye since it featured a dark Lovecraftian mystery, creepy worlds and the famous crime-solving duo. If you love Sherlock Holmes and horror, this delicious mix is something you can’t miss!

I suppose Holmes and Watson are in no need of an introduction – the genius detective in the first flush of his career and his faithful sidekick, an ex-war doctor, residing in the 221B Baker Street and untangling webs of mysteries together. One case, starting as a random kidnapping, soon evolves into something larger, like one quivering string of a criminal network run by religious fanatics, involving mental asylums, cursed rituals, ancient gods and bloody sacrifices as well as flashes of the ominous Lovecraftian world. For the consistency of the plot, it is recommended that you check out the previous game (Sherlock Holmes Chapter One) where our young detective’s past is unveiled, so you’ll make the most of your time with this adventure and grasp the references embedded in it.

The blooming start of Watson and Holmes’ relationship can be seen in how they interact with one another. Those fleeting moments of togetherness build the foundation of their future and are the utmost delight to watch, especially when Watson sheds light on his time in Afghanistan or consoles Holmes during his episodes of madness. With some silly humor thrown in for good measure, this game isn’t really as desperately dark as it seems at a glance, and it’s amazing that way. With that being said, there are still disturbingly terrifying elements incorporated into the lighter side of the narrative, but it all blends together perfectly, and the ending is satisfying, though a little hasty as everyone keeps saying. But I won’t lie to you; the cut scenes along with the transitions are sometimes so poorly executed that they're bordering on cringey…

In spite of there being quite a few mechanics to learn at the beginning, once you get a hang of them, the game will start flowing smoothly. Sherlock’s intellectual prowess is conveyed through his capability of accessing his mind palace to piece together clues, making close observations of the environment (shown as highlighted objects) and also pulling people apart with glances by choosing the correct character portrait. Sherlock can also ask for help, engage in a few quick time events and access the archives to aid his research, so you have some variety there. There is some trial and error game play, but nothing too frustrating – it’s mostly about presenting the right piece of evidence to a certain person or constructing a logical chain of thought. The good thing for those who enjoy a more relaxing experience is that you can’t actually fail or make any big mistakes (and if you do, you get to try again like nothing happened). The Awakened truly holds a gamer’s hand more in that regard, therefore there are little to no consequences in any of the actions you take.

There are improvements made from the first game, such as the lack of clunky combat or eavesdropping. My only serious complaint about the game is that, despite the beautifully crafted world reflecting the gloomy late 1800s, it lacks content. I don’t mean linearity or small maps, for it feels easier if you’re just navigating from one level to another instead of a confusing open world like in the first one, but rather the soullessness of the locations and the sheer amount of non-interactive objects. What might make the world of dead NPCs feel more alive are the side quests which I highly recommend you to buy as a DLC, otherwise you’ll just walk around pretty yet empty levels in search of that one clue needed to move the main story forward.

Although a bit overpriced, you can decide if you want to support the studio behind the game or simply buy it on sale. Considering the circumstances under which the development took place, I say the end product is quite decent, an improvement from the first episode.

MADiSON is an excellent psychological horror title the story of which revolves around exorcism, otherworldly creatures and tragic human fates. You’ll be able to uncover the dark secrets of the Maxwells' house and beyond, interact with the environment using an instant camera, store and use items as well as solve puzzles that are, in my opinion, very well made. As a creative puzzle experience, MADiSON nailed it since the cogwheels in my brain were whirring the whole time, and reaching the end of this brain marathon left me with a lingering feeling of satisfaction.

I’ve seen many people compare this game to Visage, and here’s my take: if you liked it, there’s a high possibility that this one matches your interests, too. However, MADiSON is more reliant on jump scares and lacks the same oppressive, haunted atmosphere. The element of danger is not as relentlessly present either, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be encountering horrendous entities along the way - and those moments will definitely cause your soul to leave your body!

I can see the effort put into delivering this memorable paranormal horror experience the likes of which the market needs more these days, which is why I appreciate everything about this game, from the polished graphics and clever scares to the marvelous sound design and interesting gameplay. The price might be a little too high considering its length, but then again, it’s important to support indie developers. So listen to Grandma when she tells you to suffer through this hell, she’s not crazy at all…
