For the 2009 Halloween season I decided to showcase clips from less well-known horror games. We all know about Resident Evil, Silent Hill, etc. but what else is out there? In this segment I show 3 games: one 3D survival horror game, a lovecraftian platformer (wherein my joystick stopped working properly half-way through recording), and a heartpounding text adventure set in deep space. All of these games are 100% FREE to download and play.

First up is Survival Crisis Z: In this game the player character, who has been holed up while a zombie apocolypse ensued, decides they cannot hide any longer and emerges onto streets overtaken by the undead and two human factions fighting each other as much as the zombies. The game is all real time as the player runs from building to building avoiding the undead and searching for anything useable.

Next is Insomnia. As I consider the text scroll important to getting into the proper mood for this game I decided to record the whole thing and let it play in it's entirety. If you're having trouble reading it please try viewing the video in full screen.

In this platformer you must run and jump to escape an ascending menace all while picking up stimulants to avoid falling asleep. The level is randomly generated and the character slowly loses speed and jumping power as sleep descends upon them.

Lastly, there is the white chamber (lack of capitalization purposeful) which is a text adventure point and click game. Set in deep space aboard a derelict space station the protagonist wakes up in a coffin and sets about figuring out why she's there and how to escape. Over time the shadows of the station deepen pulling the protagonist into an even darker version of it's reality.
