Game #1 - Sally Face: Episode 1

A DEEP STORY WITH INTERESTING CHARACTERS!

GENRE: STORY RICH, PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR, EXPLORATION, PROBLEM SOLVING

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, MAC, STEAM DECK, PS4, SWITCH, XBOX ONE, LINUX

I didn’t expect to enjoy Sally Face anywhere near as much as I did!

I finally decided to play Sally Face last week after hearing about the game via TikTok.

To be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’m glad I did.

I’ve now purchased the remaining episodes 2-5 to continue exploring the story!

Sally Face is a dark and unique adventure game where you play as Sal, a boy with a prosthetic face and a heavy past.

In the first episode, Sal and his dad move into a creepy apartment building with strange neighbors and a fresh crime scene.

As you explore the building, you start unraveling a bigger, unsettling mystery that hides beneath the surface.

It’s part story-driven mystery, part psychological horror, with a vibe that feels like a mix of 90s cartoons and straight-up nightmares.

Expect bizarre characters, spooky moments, and some fun problem solving.

The first episode can be completed in 40-50 mins and is only $3, so you can try it out to see if you are interested in the rest of the series!

I’m really interested to see where the story goes and what other characters will be introduced.

Game #2 - Stay Out of the House

PUPPET COMBO’S BEST GAME?

GENRE: SURVIVAL HORROR, HORROR, IMMERSIVE SIM

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, MAC, STEAM DECK, SWITCH, PS5, PS4, XBOX SERIES X, XBOX SERIES S, ANDROID

I really love Puppet Combo games and this definitely a contender for his best work alongside Nun Massacre!

Although SOOTH is more complex than Nun Massacre which a lot of players might prefer.

Stay Out of the House is a creepy, old-school horror game where you’re trapped in the home of a cannibal serial killer—and you’ve only got a few days before you end up on the dinner table. Your job? Escape however you can.

The house is basically a sandbox of terror, with traps, hiding spots, and creepy secrets everywhere.

You can sneak around quietly, fight back, or even try to save other victims… but whatever you do, The Butcher is always listening and adapting to your moves.

It’s a gritty, tense survival horror experience where every choice matters and every noise could be your last.

The atmosphere is top tier and genuinely is a GREAT horror experience!

A must play for any horror fan in my opinion. :)

Game #3 - Nubby’s Number Factory

PLINKO STYLE ROGUELIKE!

GENRE: STRATEGY, ROGUELIKE, ARCADE, DECKBUILDING

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC

Nubby's Number Factory is a weird and funny plinko-style roguelike where you bounce your little buddy, Nubby, down a pegboard to crank out huge numbers.

The whole goal? Make numbers so you can make even bigger numbers, or else... the sun explodes.

As a low-level worker in this chaotic number factory, you’ll need to meet your quota to keep space and time from collapsing.

Luckily, you’ll unlock tons of goofy and magical items to boost your production and create wild, satisfying combos.

It’s part chill, part high-stakes, and all about watching those numbers stack up bigger and bigger.

Addictive and highly recommended if you like deckbuilding roguelikes.

Game #4 - ROUNDS

AWESOME 1v1 ROGUELITE SHOOTER

GENRE: MULTIPLAYER, FIGHTING, ROGUELITE, FUNNY, 2D FIGHTER

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, PS5, PS4, XBOX ONE, XBOX SERIES S, XBOX SERIES X

ROUNDS is a chaotic and hilarious 1v1 rogue-lite shooter where you and a buddy (or a random opponent) face off in fast-paced duels.

The twist? After every round, the loser gets to pick an upgrade, which means each match snowballs into total madness as both players build ridiculous, overpowered loadouts.

You’ll end up with stuff like rocket-launcher shotguns that fire heat-seeking, bouncy missiles, while flailing your goofy noodle arms around.

I love this game and it’s alway fun to pick up and play every now and then too!

Game #5 - House of Necrosis (DEMO)

SURVIVE A MANSION THAT CHANGES EVERY TIME YOU ENTER…

GENRE: RPG, DUNGEON CRAWLER, SURVIVAL HORROR, 32-BIT, 90s

AVAILABLE PLATFORMS: PC, LINUX

House of Necrosis is a spooky, retro-style dungeon crawler where you explore a creepy mansion that reshuffles itself every time you go inside.

Think classic 90s survival horror meets RPG, with random layouts, monsters around every corner, and that gritty old-school vibe.

You’ll be leveling up, upgrading your gear, and trying to survive as you push deeper into the mansion’s twisted halls.

It’s like if a Mystery Dungeon game got stuck inside a PS1 horror title—dark, tense, and packed with weird creatures.

Perfect if you’re into Resident Evil and other retro titles!
