I’m not normally one for themed, seasonal gaming… but Halloween seems to lend itself particularly well to playing a particular type of game.
So what are you playing this spooky season?
This year, I’m playing through Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow (DS version, via the Retroid Pocket 2S). It’s not the spookiest entry in the series, but has enough creepy castle exploration to fit the bill.
I hate it when I come in here and I see a game that came out when I was in my twenties. Everyone should check with me first before describing anything as retro.
Silent hill 1 is a classic
It’s not particularly good, but now I feel like playing through Splatterhouse again.
Hell yea! I try to play old retro games with the family as the seasons change. This year I’m going to show them some of my favorite PSX titles
- MediEvil 1 and 2
- Heart of Darkness
- Skeleton Warriors
Super Metroid is an unintentional horror game.
The sense of horror and dread seems intentional. Dead scientists on the ground, dead soldiers on the ground, eerie music, limited items at the onset, etc.
