BOBO’S FUNZONE: New Horror Puzzle Adventure Coming Soon

Prepare to face your fears in Bobo's FunZone, the latest horror-puzzle adventure that plunges players into a sinister kindergarten birthday party gone horribly wrong. Developed by indie studio Uisco Games and published by Mascot Bro Studio, the game promises a blend of nerve-wracking tension and intricate puzzles, set to release on Steam on December 13th 2024. A horror puzzle adventure full of scares, confetti and party hats! You arrive at Bobo’s FunZone, a once-thriving children’s party venue that now feels more like a nightmare factory. Your daughter attended a birthday party here—but when you come to pick her up, something is horribly amiss.

Puppet House – PC Review

Enter the home of a ventriloquist whose puppet kills any who dare enter. Well, after a few people disappear, I thought I’d take it upon myself to investigate. Puppet House is a new escape room horror made by Vecube Studio and Spirit Games Studio. Recently, it came out on Steam for £13.99. Who's really pulling the strings? We play Rick Evans, a detective investigating the Hills House after hearing people go missing. Once we arrive at the house, Rick oddly gets knocked out while attempting to enter the premises. This begins what seems to be the start of one hell of a night in the Puppet House. Gameplay There isn’t any combat, apart from some QTE (Quick-Time-Events) happening at scripted points. However, for an escape room game, the key is the puzzles. There are a good amount of the...

Phasmophobia – PS5 Early Access

You know when you're 8 years old and it's Christmas and you've never been so excited in your entire life? That was me when I woke up to a key for Phasmophobia on PS5. Kinetic Games first announced a console version of their hit game back in June 2023 and since then has hit a few bumps in the road. With a full overhaul of the PC version last year, a studio fire and multiple setbacks, the console version has been repeatedly delayed. Now it's finally here, ready and raring to launch on Xbox and PlayStation. It's safe to say I'm a big fan of Phasmophobia, but with unforeseen challenges and a winding road to release does it actually live up to the standards that Kinetic Games set for themselves? Only one way to find out! I didn't sink hundreds of hours into this to be taken out by a Shade ...

FAITH – Nintendo Switch Review

What you are about to do is not approved by the Vatican. FAITH by Airdorf Games launched on PC in 2022 and has finally come to Nintendo Switch. The closest I've ever got to 2D VHS horror is Five Night at Freddy's so this was a whole new horror adventure for me. Before downloading the Switch release of FAITH, I hadn't interacted with the game at all. For this review I am flying blind with only my own gameplay to guide me! I need an old priest and a young priest... and maybe a guide. Gameplay Unfolding through the 1980s 'Satanic Panic', you are Father John Ward, a priest traumatised after a failed exorcism. You follow him through his slow descent into the occult and the supernatural world that surrounds you. FAITH consists of three chapters, each retelling a significant moment in Fathe...
