What it is, then, is a shopping list game. There's a town, a swamp, a graveyard, some sunlit farmlands, even a fishing village on the coast, and each of them has different flora and fauna you need to collect to craft your traps and spells. You play this demonic grumpy lil crone hot-stepping around different areas of a picture-book 2D world, in order to collect some escaped souls for a pretty sus black goat. I'm still completely in love with Wytchwood. Where can I buy it? Steam, GOG, Humble, Epic Games Store Publisher: Whitethorn Games, Whisper Games This game is bananas, B A N A N A S, in the best possible way, as well as being incredibly impressive, and you will lose hours to it, because each time you play your run will be absolutely unique. That will then rise until it comes into contact with a ceiling, at which point it will condense and become acid rain.

You could cause a vat of acid to break open, super heat it with an explosion, and it will turn into acid mist. Coal burns more slowly than wood, which burns more slowly than oil. And when I say everything there really is the potential for everything to catch fire.Įvery pixel in Noita is simulated, and there is a complex physics system to boot. You can find different randomised wands and spells that have effects as dangerous to you as your enemies: explosions, shooting acid, everything is fire now.

You play a lil witchy type person (presumably 'noita' means 'witch' in Finnish) exploring a series of procedurally generated caves, which become deeper and twistier and more full of hazards and monsters with each level you conquer. Time was in 2020 you couldn't find a single person on staff at RPS who wasn't rinsing Noita on their lunchbreak. Where can I buy it? Steam, GOG, Humble, Itch Look, Halloween is mostly about sweets and dressing up these days anyway (and by the way, I am livid that I've not got any parties to go to this year, because my hair is exactly the right length to do a perfect Carmy Berzatto costume). The witches I've collected here are definitely going to get you in the pumpkin spirit, even if they manage to run through most other genres except horror. Few Halloween-y sights are more iconic than a pointy hat, a black cat, and a sihouetted figure flying in front of the moon on a broomstick. Video games are lousy with both current and upcoming witches these days. Too late now! Plus, witches are totally Halloween fodder - and they're one of my key trends for games at the moment.


I am, generally speaking, a horror fan, but this year for Halloween I've niched down on a particular topic and it has sort of accidentally taken me away from horror. Check the Halloween 2022 tag to collect 'em all. For spooky season this year we're doing some round ups of our favourite horror and horror-related niche things.
