Never played Nioh before but the Nioh 3 demo is blowing my mind so far. It's SO immersive and satisfying. Think this is the kind of Tsushima + souls game I've been looking for. Feels so much more accessible than Elden Ring too.

Announcing a demo would’ve been such an easy slam dunk lol but sure Porsches are cool

Really enjoyed my time with RENTAL, an indie horror game with charming Animal Crossing and N64-like vibes. I would absolutely play a full-sized version of this 🐰 🏠 steampowered.com/app/2796550 #indiegame #horrorgame #indiedev #indiehorror

Checked out Dead Format by @katanalevy.bsky.social! Really love the idea and the ‘80s-themed aesthetics, as well as the live-action intros. steampowered.com/app/3399290 #indiegames #horrorgame #indiedev #indiehorror #vhs

Really loved my time with ROUTINE! A fantastic new sci-fi horror experience 13+ years in the making that feels very reminiscent of genre classics like Alien: Isolation, SOMA, and Dead Space. steampowered.com/app/606160 #indiegame #horrorgame #indiehorror #routine @rawfury.bsky.social

Although it’s a bit of a mixed bag, and has some serious annoyances, there’s a lot to like in Metroid Prime 4! #metroid #metroidprime4 #switch2 #gamereview tiktok.com/t/ZP8UvdxRY/

I checked out the now infamously banned indie horror game HORSES! A game where you play as a summer farmhand to help tend to the horses…who turn out to be imprisoned people. #indiegame #indiehorror #horrorgame #horses

Checked out The New Flesh! A super immersive bite-sized indie game with psychological horror elements to the tune of Red Vox’s discography. Surreal, psychedelic, and just a feast for the senses. steampowered.com/app/3692660 #indiegame #indiehorror #horrorgame #indiemusic

Reprinted copy of Laika: Aged Through Blood for the PS5 arrived in the mail! Thanks @superraregames.bsky.social for the speedy resolution, such a great Metroidvania that everyone should try 🦊 🌵 #indiegame #metroidvania #ps5 #sidescroller #limitededition

Checked out the Metroid Prime 4 demo for Switch 2! It looks really nice in person and played great in both docked and handheld. Hyped! #metroidprime4 #metroid #switch

PLEASE watch Haha, You Clowns on HBO Max, such a funny and absurd show that deserves more love! Pairs really well with Smiling Friends. #animation #adultswim #hbomax youtube.com/watch?v=LHu-...

Indie games on my watchlist, can't wait to dig into these soon! #indiegame #indiehorror #indiedev

Checked out Total Chaos! AMAZING demo! Strong Amnesia: The Bunker vibes w/satisfying combat/crafting, an interesting story, and engaging surreal elements (loved the insanity meter). Silent Hill's Akira Yamaoka is the composer too! I am seated!! steampowered.com/app/2208350 #indiegame #indiehorror

Checked out KVLT ("CULT")! A Lovecraftian horror shooter with cool sci-fi/mythological elements. Really liked the WWII-themed combat/environs and the different magical abilities. Demo gives you a lot to bite into! steampowered.com/app/2113960 #indiegame #indiehorror #indiedev @elmugu.bsky.social

As someone who used to be too scared/anxious to enjoy horror games, I’m so happy I’m able to now (real life is much scarier lol). Replaying Half-Life 2 feels incredible and I really look forward to checking out classics like F.E.A.R. and the Amnesia series!

Checked out HELL OF FEAR: Mind Breach! Very strong System Shock vibes/Metroidvania elements. Exploration feels great and it was satisfying to find upgrades, logs, and see different enemies. Will keep my eye on it! #indiegame #horrorgame @helloffear.bsky.social store.steampowered.com/app/3372090

Checked out Hail to the Rainbow! Felt like a "Russian Half-Life" in many ways, with cool post-apocalyptic, dystopian, and cyberpunk-like vibes. Really enjoyed both parts of the demo, which reminded me of Half-Life 2 and Alien: Isolation. Классно! #indiegame #indiehorror steampowered.com/app/1699230

It’s a psychological thriller kind of night! 🖤 🙌 #davidlynch #kiyoshikurosawa #criterion

Checked out Isle of Reveries! Feels very reminiscent of Zelda games on the Game Boy Color, with @desertcucco.bsky.social doing a great job of capturing the charming feel of these classic games. Love the pixel art as well 👾 #indiegame #indiedev #retro #zelda store.steampowered.com/app/3100970/...

I fear I’ve uncovered a new obsession: immersive simulation games! How did I sleep on these for so long 🤯 #imsim #horrorgames #scifi

Tried out #Holstin! Went in blind and was surprised by how layered it was, was expecting something more linear/claustrophobic like Signalis, but I dug the puzzles, different POVs, and environment. The plethora of cigarettes felt very Slavic lol and I even understood some Polish. #indiegame #horror

I’ve never splurged on a criterion sale before but this was too good to pass up! Can’t wait to finally watch Lost Highway and Cure 🖤 #criterion #film

wow I've been sleeping hard on the System Shock remake, such good survival horror and cyberpunk vibes! It's like Dead Space meets Cyberpunk 2077, couldn't put the demo down. #horrorgame #systemshock

A.I.L.A really impressed me! Its psychological horror gives strong P.T. and Resident Evil vibes, and the puzzle solving, continuous tension, and claustrophobic environments kept me locked in. The Black Mirror-like sci-fi elements sound interesting too! #indiegame #indiehorror @playaila.bsky.social

I miss when the bike was the most controversial thing about Metroid Prime 4 🥀

Finally finished my Crow Country review! Had so much fun with this one and made me love the indie horror genre even more. Click on the link for the full review if interested, would love to hear any thoughts!! #indiegame #indiehorror #ps5 @sfbtom.bsky.social @sfbdim.bsky.social lesplaygames.com

ohh @letterboxd.social you cooked with this one #frankenstein

one of the coolest things from my childhood 🐢 🍕 #tmnt #ninjaturtles #90s #nostalgia

I fear I might not go back to mario kart #KirbyAirRiders #demo

#Dinoblade is a lot of fun! Really neat to see the viral animations and concept come to life through the demo, where the dark souls-like gameplay and dinosaur-themed world work surprisingly well together. It’s also just plain cool to see dinos fighting with giant swords 🗡️ 🦖 #steam #demo #indiegame

Wow. Cronos: The New Dawn is REALLY scratching the survival sci-fi horror itch, and I've only played the demo. Loving the atmosphere, its bleak, retro-futuristic environments, crafting, and combat. Can't wait to play the full game! #CronosTheNewDawn #horrorgame #steam @blooberteam.bsky.social

Totally get the hype around Absolum — feels like a solid/just plain fun beat 'em up with interesting RPG roguelite elements, satisfying combat, and crisp, comic-book-like characters within a vibrant fantasy world. Strong Hades vibes! #absolum #roguelite #roguelike #steam #demo #indiegame

horror games I can’t wait to play! the best genre imo 😈 #LookOutsideGame #silverpines #faithunholytrinity #soma #indiegame

#Persona3Reload demo on #Switch2 plays decent enough, but its 30fps cap and noticeable stuttering hold it back from being the definitive way to play. Also made me finally notice the screen’s slower response time. However the animated cutscenes, OST, and battles are still great.

Well, time to see what all the fuss is about 😅! Z-A’s release has been extremely polarizing but I’m genuinely curious to see how it plays. I enjoyed Arceus a lot and hope Pokemon Legends: Z-A delivers as well — also pumped for Totodile and Mega Gengar! #PokemonLegendZA #Switch2 #Pokemon

Finally taking the time to sit down and check out the og #SilentHill (while patiently waiting for Bloober's remake). God it's just so good. The controls definitely take getting used to, but the atmosphere and storytelling are just top notch. Would love to own a PS1 physical copy one day!

thank you for skating!!

#SkateStory Steam demo blew me away, WOW. The abstract underworld settings, realistic skateboarding physics, absurd humor, KILLER psychedelic pop soundtrack (shout out to Blood Cultures), and dazzling psychedelic visuals really hook you in. This is why I fucking love Devolver Digital. @bysameng.com

Checked out the BALLxPIT demo on Steam and it's SUPER fun! I totally get the Balatro comparisons (also reminds me of a chaotic Tetris, which I wasn't expecting!) Went in blind and really enjoyed my time: the music, environments, upgrades, farming, and gameplay loop got me hooked! #BALLxPIT

HUGE thank you to @pnpgames.bsky.social for the Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 giveaway!! Still can’t believe it! Super Mario Galaxy is one of my favorite games and I’ve never played the second, can’t wait to jump in! 💫 🌌 🌟 (magnet was my own ✨)

Finally watched Luca Guadagnino’s Queer on HBO Max. Beautiful cinematography, compelling leads, and a delirious drug-infused romance, filled with beatnik undertones, that’s quietly captivating. Not to mention a great anachronistic soundtrack. Really wish I’d seen it in theaters. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️/5

#OneBattleAfterAnother at Vista Theater Hollywood was really fucking good #vistavision #la

The next indie game I'll be diving into is... Crow Country! By @sfbdim.bsky.social and @sfbtom.bsky.social from SFB Games. #CrowCountry is a survival horror game reminiscent of tank control classics like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. I love the genre and can't wait to dive in for spooky season!

SCHiM is a charming and visually dazzling puzzle-platformer that offers lots of promise — but its repetitive gameplay loop, and underutilized premise, end up holding it back. My full review here: lesplaygames.com/2025/10/08/s... #indiegame #switch #switch2 #schim #gamereview

Finishing up my SCHiM review, a game that’s been on my radar since 2019! Will be taking on an indie horror game next, since tis the season 👀 🧟‍♂️ 🐦‍⬛ #indiegame #gamereview #schim #switch

Been really enjoying Ghost of Tsushima (Yōtei soon). Beautiful game 🍂 🌺 #VirtualPhotography #GhostofTsushima #GhostofYotei #PS5

Yuppp this is the one alright. Ready to dive back into Ghost of Tsushima with this bad boy (and Yōtei soon) 😤 #GhostofYotei #GhostofTsushima #DualSense
