Happy Halloween! Nothing better to celebrate it than with a spooky game, am I right? Well, that was what I was hoping for with Jukai Studio’s and Versus Evil’s Stray Souls, a horror survival that I’ve been excited about since I was first told about it. I appreciate Jukai and Versus Evil for allowing this reviewing opportunity but, I’m sorry to say that this was a rough one to get through. Let’s get the positive parts of the game out of the way first. The soundtrack is possibly the selling point for the game with famed gaming composer Akira Yamaoka on board. The only issue is that while playing Stray Souls, I was able to make out at least two songs that were done by him, causing me to wonder if he only did a couple of songs for this game. Unfortunately, as a whole, Stray Souls was rough to play. The game had a lot of potential but in

In the same way that there can be a shoddy horror release in the movie sphere, it can also most definitely happen in the gaming world. In fact, over the years, we’ve been treated to some painfully bad horror games. Thankfully, for horror gamers, we’ve also had a selection of masterpieces to slash our way through. These days, horror games are fairly diverse. From psychological terrors to games with a strong horde shooter aspect, there are plenty of solid products to get through on a selection of gaming platforms. The mobile category is now serving up an even stronger offering, while highly sophisticated console machines, such as a PlayStation 5, offer an immaculate horror gaming experience given the souped-up graphics that it boasts. Additionally, virtual reality gaming has added another layer of intrigue to this popular category, while people also turn to other gaming platforms for a few hair-raising moments.

The Walking Dead: Destines will be launching digitally on November 17th and physically December 1st for

Souls Games… Nothing gets the blood pumping more than a game where defeat is part of the story and repetitive action to earn back lost points while running the risk of losing them forever, using skills you normally don’t use in other games and the fact that you’re playing this willingly… Some run marathons, while others take on a game like Lords of the Fallen.
