Intricate pixel art may feel a little old hat now, but there's something about the design of Inmost's world and monsters that stuck with me.

I've had my eye on Inmost ever since I played a demo back at this year's Game Developer's Conference. Platforms: iOS, Apple TV, Mac via Apple Arcade

Its eerie blood-curdling screams and other sound design elevates The Glass Staircase into being a must play this Halloween season.Д«uy on itch.io Inmost will be coming to PC and Switch later this year, according to its press kit.

Slowly but surely, all the girls are killed by a mysterious monster, until you take control of the rifle-armed Margaret, who shoots her way through the estate's monsters to free herself. The Glass Staircase pins you as a few servant girls in a manor, who you learn are actually test subjects of Edward, the owner of the estate. Opening doors even feels reminiscent of old Resident Evil games. Luckily, The Glass Staircase is an extra special one: it bottles up what makes Puppet Combo's work so enticing-a delectable blend of PS1 aesthetics, slasher film gore, and chunky controls-into one go-around. I've fallen way behind on Puppet Combo's games, save for The Glass Staircase. And that's really what their games always remind me of: an era of filmmaking that wasn't afraid to be at once silly in retrospect and genuinely terrifying. Their work is always uniquely uncomfortable, whether it's calling back to slashers like last year's Nun Massacre, or some other era of horror film making. Puppet Combo is one of the most reliable horror game creators out there. It's a relatively short experience that revolves around the era of 'Satanic Panic,' and aside from some frustrating boss fights, it's bound to linger in your mind before you hit the hay. It even features jarring rotoscope animation that always shocks-like an instance where I neglected to read a clear message on the wall telling me to not move when a monster appeared, leading to switching to an unsettling animation of it killing me in an instant. Then the chaotic sound that kicked up while you were reading goes silent, but just for a moment.ДЇaith: Chapter 2 is definitely enriched by playing its much-shorter predecessor, but still, its creepy MS DOS-like art stands on its own. As you're reading it, it devolves into manic, all-caps madness before ending on an upside down cross, spelled out with 666. You pick up the paper and find a newspaper report on ritual murders. As a priest, you're lost wandering in the 8-bit woods, when you come across what looks like blood smeared around a piece of paper. There's a moment in Faith: Chapter 2 that rattled me when I played it earlier this year.

Faith: Chapter 2 is effective, despite its minimal pixels. Here are seven scary games to keep you up at night this Halloween season.

Of course, you can always turn to the big horror games that released this year, like the aforementioned Resident Evil 2, or even Bloober Team's haunted dog companion simulator Blair Witch, but if you're looking for something a tad more obscure, then you've come to the right place.

Like I've done in years past, I've cobbled together a round up of the horror games you might have neglected to play in 2019 or maybe you never even heard of in the first place. It also gives me an excuse to catch up on the horror games I've missed all year long, or maybe dive into those 4th Survivor missions in Resident Evil 2 that I never got around to. It's my favorite time of the year: where the best season, the best holiday, and my birthday all collide.
