But each game is also a nice short experience that’s easy to work through in a single dark October evening. In this 8-bit platformer players, have to help Antonio recover his lost memories as he explores lava caves, haunted forests and attempts to make his way through cursed mazes. They’re full of creepy imagery and atmosphere, of course, with a stop-motion feel to them, which adds to the uncanny nature of the series. Wyverin Entertainment’s Hot Rush: A Horror Adventure Game is another must-play mobile game this Halloween game.
Beyond that, I’ve also played the Little Nightmares games around this time of year. I have to echo Jenni’s choice here, mainly because Fatal Frame is my favorite horror series, so I’ll usually replay something in the series around this time. I’ve been playing a round or two of that several nights a week in October. In addition, while it isn’t fully Halloween-themed, I started a new tradition last year with Dragon Ball: The Breakers, which has its tense and scary moments and (in my opinion) has the best Dead by Daylight-style gameplay. I’m a scaredy cat so being able to run from iconic horror villains like Michael Myers alongside other players helps the atmosphere. The horror game I often go back to at this time of year is Dead by Daylight.
