Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel, Sounds Like A Place I’d Like To Spend A Long Relaxing Weekend

Published

on

Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel has a real “Clue” vibe to it, from the games premise. You play a vacationing police officer, who is in an avalanche along a snowy mountain, and take refuge at a nearby hotel. Everything seems alright, you check things out, speak with guests, and then are thrown into a murder mystery. Odd things had been happening days before the murder, and you are to question guests, and find out what exactly happened.

The game is based on “Hotel “At a Lost Climber”: Inspector Glebsky’s Puzzle”, made originally by Akella. Lighthouse Interactive has recently signed a deal with Akella acquiring publishing rights for North America, Germany, UK, Scandinavia and Benelux territories to Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel. The game was inspired by Russian sci-fi novelists, the Strugatsky Brothers story “Inspector Glebsky’s Puzzle” that was written in 1970.

It’s coming out for the PC only, and is looking at a 2009 release. Check out a video slideshow from the game HERE

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
