You may have heard of this absurd indie horror game made by one guy. Choo-Choo Charles is about a monster hunter who’s been summoned to the dreary island of Aranearum to hunt down the abomination that is Charles, a monstrous spider with a clownish visage that has presumably taken up residence within one of the…

Top 10 Creepiest Dredge Aberrations: DLC Edition
Dredge is an eerie fishing game where you can catch some rather unnatural fish. I already wrote a post about the creepiest aberrations in the main game, and now it’s time to list the worst abominations that you can catch in the DLC, Pale Reach and Iron Rig. Whether you’re carefully navigating the icy landscape…
The Iron Rig DLC Added a Big Ugly Oil Rig to My Ocean!
The Iron Rig DLC has finally been released for Dredge, which adds an oil rig to the northern portion of your map and a whole new story and cast of characters. Those responsible for adding this monstrosity to the ocean are none other than the Ironhaven Corporation, a shady business whose true purposes are unknown,…
The Duck’s 2024 GOTY – FNAF: Into the Pit
As we do every year, it’s about time we chose our top game released in 2024! Okay, so here’s the thing…I don’t usually play games until long after their release. So I literally have one option for Game of the Year for 2024, and that is Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit. Fortunately, I…
A Little to the Left is a Little Tedious
As part of one’s Nintendo Switch Online subscription, apparently free game trials are available, in which you have a limited time to play a game for free. I just found this out recently when Nintendo emailed me about a game trial for a puzzle game called A Little to the Left. I had about a…
Alisa: Demo Review
Making modern games in a retro style has become rather common practice lately. A major trend I’ve noticed lately are PS1-style horror games. Perhaps those grainy graphics just lend well to a spooky atmosphere in the same fashion as creepy VHS-style videos. Wanting to try one of these games for myself, I was pleased to…
FNAF 1-4: A Comparison
For the longest time, the only original Scott Cawthon-created Five Nights at Freddy’s games I owned were the first two. This was largely due to the fact that these games were originally only available on the PC, and I’m more of a console gamer. Nevertheless, I still tried the first two games for myself, then…
The Horror That Surrounds: The Eye of the Universe
When I decided to write about Outer Wilds, it was hard to narrow down the exact location I wanted to cover. Let’s see, we’ve got a planet being torn apart from the inside by a black hole, an ocean planet covered in tornadoes, and a bizarre place where the fabric of space itself doesn’t work…
The Horror That Surrounds: Mouldwood Depths
I’ve heard it said, “I’m not afraid of the darkness, I’m just afraid of what’s in it”. This statement rings true 99% of the time. Darkness typically hides all sorts of sneaky things that like to slither and skitter about unseen. But the darkness itself…it can’t actually hurt you, right? Right? Well, in Ori and…
The Horror That Surrounds: The Dunes
With so many horror games revolving around abandoned buildings, spooky woods, and loads of dead things, it’s really refreshing when a horror game comes along that forgoes all of that. Okay, okay, today’s subject is not technically a horror game, and yet I still find it to be a good deal more terrifying than most…
