A girl with yellow pigtails wakes up in the woods under the gaze of a mysterious black cat, where her curiosity will lead her along the cat's fur trail to a strange house where terrible nightmares and truths meet.

With a total of two endings and two others that only add certain dialogues to the story of the two main endings. One of these endings is in the extra difficult mode once you've finished on medium level, where the puzzles are more developed and thoughtful, there's more tension around every corner and a raw, frightening atmosphere from start to finish.

The music composed by Fummy does not pass by, hitting every note of the floors of this mansion of horrors and in the chases this level seizes in a magnificent way.

The Witch's House is one of the classic horror rpg maker games that has graced Steam with a great makeover and a remembered look. Its story is captivating and psychologically suspenseful, with an impactful twist at the end. The extra mode is extremely fantastic and better enhanced, causing that aversion in the desire to have more doors of this mansion to recognize. It's a memorable game for lovers of this genre and you won't be disappointed!

The big ((bad)) detective and wolf sheriff Bigby, in his life in Fabletown, where fairy tales and happy endings are more unusual and drastic than expected, tries to solve various incidents for the not so well-being of its citizens. In this journey he will find himself in a plot of intrigue that will bring risks to all the citizens of Fabletown.

Based on the Fable comic book saga, The Wolf Among Us is a narrative story involving choices that can affect the characters' situations. Teltalle is known for involving this practicality of consequences in actions and yet many times you see that no matter how hard you try to make the right choices, the fate of certain characters keeps going in the same direction as it was programmed (technically choices are not so relevant after all...).

With 5 episodes, it's a complementary and well-developed plot that will leave you shaking in your hands over whether you want ((or not)) the good outcome of those around you. Still, as said, certain results permeate into a single direction regardless of choices, making an elementary bubble without a metamorphosis to the outside.

A Wolf In Autumn is a short psychological horror game with a setting judging by the developer's own early steps in creating games. You find yourself in the mind of a child trapped in a cage of trauma and confusion from the start. Although the story has a formality and narrative that is interesting to appreciate, the mechanics are a little grating. The atmosphere tries to be fearful at a certain point but often fails in its shades. It's a game that I'd question positively or negatively, but in view of the essential terms that could be improved, I'll keep this wolf dormant.

The Works of Mercy is an unwanted psychological game that before its release promised a great and invigorating atmosphere but in return brought a short apartment vlog with no mercy or attacks on a successor to the acclaimed P.T.

Note: Watch your merciful head when trying to get to the basement as apparently the developer thought that dwarves lived in the stairwell.

Xlll is a rare gem of classic fps/stealth with comic book frames based ironically on a comic book from the 80s where the protagonist finds himself with a forgotten memory and from the start he finds himself in a game of intrigue and conspiracy to find his identity. Unfortunately, the ending adds a string to a sequel that has never been made outside the comics.

The composition is a top notch noir with a certain degree of elevation depending on the certainty of being stealthy or found.

It's a determined and recommended classic, but given its ending you're left waiting for a reliable game sequel that will never make it to the big screen.

It's gratifying that many free games manage to deliver a memorable experience that many paid games wouldn't even come close to delivering, and this developer and his games manage to produce that rare piece to experience.

Yeli Orog is a short fmv/point'n'click psychedelic journey with a visceral and fearful cosmic horror. From the same mind behind Universe Generator, this tends to be the precursor that manages to generate essence in the mountains of madness in Asturias. If you're a fan of Lovecraftian genres and appreciate their incomprehensible cosmic madness, try to immerse yourself in this game's short runtime. Even if there's no save during the game's one hour or so, you won't be disappointed in this short cosmic ghost train travel.

You Must is a short horror game in which you have to play a game to find an item in an abandoned location. Apart from just one creature that lurks around and can easily be evaded, the game just throws unnecessary scares at you, thinking that the weak plot will bring some benefit. Another point is the crashes in places where if you're not careful you'll have to return to the last save. You Must Not Buy This!

The game follows the protagonist of choice who has been called by his family on a navigational quest to uncover secrets from his past on the island of Gemea and destroy the ancient darkness that terrorizes the region.

Terrifying is nothing to say about this game, because the most you'll get out of it is the intense need to farm and build in order to fulfill various objectives. The game begins with the typical cliché of a character who has too many items and ends up losing them in an “unexpected” storm (apparently you can choose the genre of the character, but in the end of the game it has a feel that the developer has let slip on the script).

Centered around 8 different regions with changing climates and seasons where you can build 6 farms and collect different pets based on their biomes. As well as planting tree seedlings and horticulture. The better you manage your farm, the higher its quality percentage will become. This also applies to each of the 8 regions, where you will have various options to turn them from bad to exceptional. These options include planting trees, carrying out quests, clearing the darkness, finding spirits and improving your farm.

Yonder The Cloud Catcher is a game that doesn't permeate the idea of surviving and dying trying, because from start to finish your immortal journey is focused more on building, resorting, destroying, creating and discovering (apart from the Altair case or Tommy Vercetti Water Syndrome). If you like lush, paradisiacal landscapes with a distinctive cute nature and a focus on building and exploring, this game is for you, as you'll spend a lot of time collecting many, many items to achieve and build.

!Note:! If you want to platinum this game, I recommend that you focus on the fish collection achievement as soon as you get the fishhook, as it is by far the most difficult, and once you have passed it, you are already on the path to peace and quiet.

Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair follows on from its first game in different formats and dimensions where we must once again defeat the fearsome Captain B. At this point we have the option of saving the 48 bees lost in the 20 chapters plus the open world outside them to serve as a shield during this long and arduous battle or going it alone with the determination that despite there being no save points or tonics to save you, you will persist until the end. More challenging than its predecessor, but still nostalgic for the old games like Donkey Kong that have held our hands so much in the past. And yes, Laylee is still as annoying as in the first game (someone should change this character's voice actor...)

Zombie Shooter is a short isometric sc fi zombie based where you have to stop an infection that has spread through a scientific base. It's as if Serious Sam and Dead Rising were insectivated by the tangle of creatures that will come at you. Hordes and hordes of exploding blood and weapons to love and kill in this short zombilistic ride.
