It’s the most wonderful time of the year, we’re quickly reaching Halloween and it’s time to get festive! Time to break out the decorations and set up props in the yard and carve up some pumpkins, great traditions but it could use a bit of flair to help make it pop and to make you the popular house on the street, and Atmos FX is here to help make it so! A big THANK YOU to the awesome folks over at Atmos FX for making this review possible! I was sent a screen for my window that I can project the scene on, the screen is pretty light so I was actually able to just hang it over a curtain rod without having to use hooks (that were included). Then came setting up the projector they sent along as well. The ViewSonic M1 projector may be small but it packs a projecting punch! What I loved most about it was

The Farm 51 and All in! Games were awesome enough to allow me the chance to explore the decaying ruins of Pripyat and the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone in Chernobylite, an FPS survival game that takes players to the most radiated zone in the world. In Chernobylite players take on the role of Igor, a Ukrainian physicist, who worked at Chernobyl doing research involving interdimensional travel along with his fiancé who went missing during the meltdown of the power plant. After the disaster, a new element was made that Igor is studying called Chernobylite that also has attracted the attention of the NAR who have taken over the wasteland. Along with the human threat, there are now also mysterious creatures that thanks to the Chernobylite, have traverse dimensions and now stalk the wasteland. Now onto the game itself! Once you get the game starting players will have to adjust the sensitivity as I noticed at the start I turn too slow,

It’s no secret, people like to kill zombies, but how would they fair staring down a massive hoard of them barreling towards them like a tsunami of bloody flesh and nightmare fuel? Well, now you can in World War Z: Aftermath. A big thanks to Saber Interactive for the opportunity to try out this game! The game takes place in the same universe as Paramount Picture’s film World War Z where players team up to survive the massive hoard of zombies. It should be noted that World War Z: Aftermath is an addition to the main game and not a standalone story. Aftermath features new characters and two new levels, Rome and Russia’s Kamchatka peninsula. The biggest addition to the game is the option to have the game in First-Person, which added a whole new dynamic to the intensity of the game. I have not played the game before now and after a few hours going solo with AI teammates;

Warner Bros. Games and Turtle Rock Studio have released a new trailer for their upcoming fps zombie shooter Back 4 Blood that focuses on the narrative behind the game’s main plot and showcases “Mom” the leader of the band of human survivors who are facing the Devil Worm infestation that transformed most of humanity into zombie-like creatures. Speaking of Zombies… Techland released a statement today about the release of the sequel to the popular fps/parkour zombie game Dying Light. Unfortunately, fans of the first game who are looking forward to the release of Dying Light 2 Stay Human will have to wait a bit longer as the release has been pushed back to February 4, 2022, so the devs can playtest the game to make sure it will be perfect at launch. Dying Light 2 Stay Human will be on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Pre-orders are available via dyinglightgame.com/preorder. The full statement will

When I first heard of this game, I saw it on a post on Twitter showing testing of the combat animation and was instantly taken in by the look (though it was roughly done) but now Tormented Souls has been unleashed and PQube was amazing enough to let me have a look-see at their game that touts its bringing back classic survival horror. Tormented Souls follows Caroline Walker, a young woman who was suddenly called on to visit an abandoned mansion that is also a hospital, upon arriving she is knocked out and wakes up in a nightmarish scenario where twisted creatures roam the halls and her only weapon is a nail gun. The controls of the game are very smooth and can be mastered quite quickly and handle very much like the classic survival horror games we grew up on! No surprise as the game is heavily inspired by “Resident Evil” and “Silent Hill”, which you definitely see a

Those who have been reading past articles of mine may have noticed that I covered Song of Horror a lot as the premise of the game caught my attention and got my spooky meter going as I do love a good scary game. The wait is over and I can now finally say a big thank you to Protocol Games and Raiser Games for the opportunity to review! Now let’s see if the long wait was worth it! Song of Horror follows 13 playable characters as they investigate the mysterious disappearance of famed mystery writer Sebastian P. Husher and his family. The investigation immediately goes out of control as the disappearances revolve around a mysterious music box and an otherworldly entity known simply as the Presence is responsible and has ensnared the investigators as well. If you are a fan of the old-school survival horror games, this is for you! Immediately you will notice that the game is set up
