Cult Horror Classic ‘D’ is Now on GOG

Published

on

Most of the world never had the chance to complete Kenji Eno’s D trilogy, which had a strong start about two decades ago with the original D, a psychological horror game about that’s more or less representative of the era and its unfortunate fascination with FMVs. It also featured cannibalism and a female lead, neither of which were very popular in the 90’s. It was a hit in Japan that went largely unnoticed everywhere else, though it’s found a cult following since then because that’s what happens to 90’s horror games now.

Its story is similar to the numerous other obscure titles the genre has long forgotten about, like The 7th Guest and I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, both recent additions to the Night Dive Studios home for wayward horror games that no one has seriously thought about playing in a very long time. It was really just a matter of time that D would join the company that’s now responsible for the future of System Shock, where it should finally have a future, whatever that might mean.

Its new home has already proved beneficial for fans, who can finally get that D — surely there’s a better way to say that — without having to risk death in an attic to find a dusty 3DO. It’s available now on PC, Mac and Linux for the totally-worth-it price of $5.99 on GOG.

Go now, stranger, and scratch your itch for that sweet, sweet D.

AreYouWatching.com: ‘The Watchers’ Interactive Website Is Full of Creepy Easter Eggs

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
