Get every Frictional horror game ever made—Penumbra, Amnesia, and SOMA—for just $15 in this screamingly good bundle

Amnesia: The Dark Descent, released 16 years ago, is a significant title in horror gaming, known for its unsettling experience that leads to a numbing acceptance of horror. Humble Bundle is offering The Dark Descent along with five other Frictional Games titles for a discounted price. The collection includes: - Penumbra Collectors Pack: A trilogy that precedes Frictional's later works. - Amnesia: The Dark Descent: A game set in a Gothic castle where players confront grotesque creatures and their dark past. - Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs: A cerebral horror experience developed by The Chinese Room. - Amnesia: Rebirth: A direct sequel to The Dark Descent set in the 1930s. - Amnesia: The Bunker: A survival horror entry praised for its innovative approach. - SOMA: Regarded as Frictional's finest work, focusing on narrative depth rather than jump scares.

Warframe’s Shadowgrapher update is out now, and Digital Extremes isn’t scared of your penis drawings

Players navigate an abandoned spaceship in the Chains of Harrow questline in Warframe, experiencing a horror-themed update called Shadowgrapher. The update features a new game mode, Follie's Hunt, where players are stalked by Follie, an ink blot-inspired Warframe, in the eerie Vesper relay. The gameplay is slower and more strategic, contrasting with Warframe's typical fast-paced action, and emphasizes coordination to avoid being caught by Follie. Follie's Shadowgraph ability allows players to summon customizable items, with safeguards in place to manage potential misuse. The Shadowgrapher update also introduces new cosmetics for Gauss and Grendel.

Cult-Classic ’90s Horror Game Comes To Steam With Bizarre Title

Myst was a groundbreaking title that showcased the potential of CD-ROM technology, leading to increased interest in PC multimedia and the emergence of new development teams. Major Hollywood figures recognized the impact of gaming on commercial entertainment, although their focus on full-motion video sometimes missed the mark. A notable collaboration between Time Warner Interactive and poet William S. Burroughs resulted in the game The Dark Eye, originally launched in 1995, which blends point-and-click adventure with a unique narrative experience. Players explore a manor filled with family secrets and stop-motion interpretations of Edgar Allan Poe’s stories, enhanced by claymation puppets and Burroughs’ narration. The game is being re-released on Steam under the new title Edgar Allan Poe’s Interactive Horror: 1995 Edition due to trademark issues with the original name. The revival of The Dark Eye reflects a trend of nostalgic PC games becoming more accessible through official releases on platforms like Steam. Starting Sunday, gamers can acquire the rebranded title on Steam.
