Darkness is approaching, ghosts lurk, and pumpkins sport sinister smiles. That’s because Halloween is almost upon us, and whether you like it or not, it’s time to celebrate. The easiest way to do so is with a handful of video games, and Valve knows this well, as they have already started their iconic Halloween sales. Under the name of Steam’s Festival of Fear: Revenge, there are thousands of games on sale from October 26 at 7:00 PM to November 2 at 6:00 PM. To make sure you don’t miss out, we have selected some of our favorites for you to enjoy a fabulous few days of spookiness.
Inscryption (€999 – 50%)
The Game of the Year from two years ago is a roguelike card game with escape room elements that can send shivers down anyone’s spine. How? If we told you, maybe it wouldn’t be so scary, right? What we can tell you is that it’s one of the most original, fun, and clever games that has been released in years, and you can get it for half the price. Not getting it for €9.99 is a real crime.
Dead Space (€3599 – 40%)
The classic science fiction survival horror still looks and plays incredibly well, so we all thought, why would it need a remake? And EA silenced us. It needs a remake to be smoother, more stylish, and even scarier than the original. A true delight that will captivate even the most demanding, now with a good chunk cut from its price.
FAITH: The Unholy Trinity (€874 – 30%)
Do you like The Exorcist? Do you like the retro, pixelated aesthetic? Well, we bring you the game you never thought could scare you like this. In FAITH: The Unholy Trinity, you take on the role of a young exorcist who must return to finish an unfinished job. And even though it may not seem like it, trust us on this: it’s very scary. Exceptionally playable, artistically stunning, this is one of the best horror games of recent years.
Resident Evil Village (€1599 – 60%)
Resident Evil 4 is on many lists for Game of the Year, but you might not have played the latest installment of the franchise yet. And you would be doing yourself a disservice. Resident Evil Village is a fantastic survival horror game with stunning graphics and artistic direction that takes the Resident Evil franchise into new territory without ever losing its essence.
Dredge (€1874 – 20%)
Perhaps you want something more tranquil. To go out with your boat. Sail. Fish. Have something unknown assail you in the middle of the night looking to kill you. The usual on the high seas. That’s what Dredge offers you, a horror and fishing game that has been a resounding success among critics and the public, and it will receive its first DLC on November 16th. What better time to get on board than now?
