In a similar fashion with my NES Horror games showcase, I wanted to showcase PSONE horror games that weren't well known. This game, I first learnt about from the website Hardcore Gaming 101.com and their feature on Unknown Horror Games. I guess this is a welcome change from the other games I've featured in this Halloween showcase not about demons,vampires etc. But, rather, that the "monsters" of this game, as you soon learn, is humanity. Anyway, you play as Rion, a boy with tremendous psychic powers who also has amnesia. Over the course of the game, you slowly piece together your memories and discover that you are humanity's only hope against genetically modified humans called "Galerians"..
(I really enjoyed trying out this game in the short time that I did that I may do a full playthrough of it next year....hmmm)
