Queen Vanessa’s Manor: Spoopy or Nightmare Fuel?
A Hat in Time is a quirky and colorful game inspired by 3D platformers of the 90s. Most of the game is bright and goofy…and then there’s one chapter that turns this otherwise cute game into pure nightmare fuel.

Unending Aqua: Demo Review
Unending Aqua is another one of those liminal space games that are so popular right now. I have already seen countless games where people explore the yellow hallways of the Backrooms or the tile-covered halls of the Poolrooms, and I was pleased to find a game in the liminal space genre that does something different. …
The Forest Temple: A Charming and Only Slightly Haunted Manor at an Affordable Price
Back in 2016, I wrote a post about the top three creepiest dungeons in The Legend of Zelda.

Spooktober: Just How Far Will the Aberrations in Dredge Spread?
Whereas some horror games have you getting chased by terrifying monstrosities that scream and moan as they shuffle or outright bolt after you, the horror of Dredge is far more understated. In fact, the game could almost appear relaxing on the surface. You play as a new fisherman who just moved to the island of…
The Puppet and Withereds Debut in the Newest FNAF 2 Trailer
The second trailer for the Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 movie (in theaters on December 5) released just a few days ago, and it looks amazing! Though I do want to warn anyone hoping to go into the movie blind, as this trailer shows a bunch of animatronics not seen in the first trailer, so…
