Five Fantastic Horror Games For Gamers Who Enjoy A Good Scare

Gamers love horror, but what is it about horror-themed games they enjoy so much? The answer seems to be the mixture of escapism and excitement we experience while playing.

Then there’s the reward itself. The games keep us on edge and although we get a scare, we laugh about it afterward. We simply love that payback. Below we look at some of the best horror-themed games around Blood Suckers If you check out the range of online slots at Draft Kings, you’ll come across a nice little horror slot called Blood Suckers. This low volatility five-reeler has a return to player (RTP) of 98% and, as you might expect from the name, has a vampire theme. You’re the vampire hunter, and the reels exude a strong vampire vibe

Beautiful And Haunting: Game Review ‘Mundaun’

Hidden Fields and MWM Interactive were awesome enough to allow me the chance to check out their unique horror tale set in the Swiss Alps, Mundaun. The game follows a young man returning to the village of Mundaun where he grew up after receiving news that his grandfather died where shortly afterward the grandson soon discovers that there’s more to the story and a threat from the past awaits. Now onto Mundaun itself. The controls are very easy to master and not over thought out. The game handles well from its default settings so players are able to just start the game and go without any tweaking. When it comes to sound, finally, a game that does it right! The ambient sounds are not ridiculously loud or clearly on a loop but actually sound like how I would imagine it would be in the Alps, I’ll admit, I like it at one part in the story when you’re inside the

‘Gothic’ Remake To Have Microtransactions

Sorry Gothic fans, THQ’s remake will be committing gaming sin by adding MTX into the upcoming game. Gothic will be introducing the “G-Store” in the game where players spend G-Coins to purchase cosmetics, stronger weapons, creature-type-damage focus enhancers, XP boosters, skill resets, and pets. Players can earn coins one of two ways; watching Gothic live streams, for each hour watching the Gothic Remake in a stream, registered users will be rewarded with G-Coins, and buying coins with real money. Reinhard Pollice, Studio Head at Alkimia Interactive & Business and Development Director at THQ Nordic had this to say -we did a representative survey in our financial department and 100% of the people agreed, that this is a fantastic idea!” Just like how it worked for, Red Dead Online, Star Wars Battlefront II, Evolve, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Call of Duty WWII, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Dead Space 3, and anyone else you the reader
