[Trailer] Drive and Survive With Car-Centric Horror Title ‘HorrorDriven’; Demo Available This Week

Published

on

It’s always good to have some competition, and for Ondrej Svadlena’s car-centric horror title BEWARE, that comes in the form of InputAlfa’s upcoming HorrorDriven: A story for the road, which is having its demo released later this week.

Much like BEWARE, HorrorDriven centres on the player driving through a derelict and hostile world, avoiding dangers to make it out alive. HorrorDriven goes the extra mile (sorry) by incorporating survival mechanics like scavenging for scraps to craft items and upgrades for your car. There are also some procedurally-generated puzzle elements for you to solve, along with stealth mechanics to avoid confrontation.

As mentioned, the demo for HorrorDriven is expected later this week, and will be free for anyone to try. You can also wishlist the game on Steam to know when the demo goes live, or follow InputAlfa’s Twitter account.

Throwback Survival Horror Title ‘Crow Country’ Available Now on PC, Consoles [Trailer]

Published

Just in case you didn’t know, SFB Games’ throwback Survival Horror title Crow Country is out today on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. And as is usually the norm, we have a new launch trailer to mark the occasion.

“It’s finally here! This project has been a real labour of love for us, so we’re beyond excited to finally let people enjoy all that Crow Country has to offer,” said Adam Vian, Creative Director at SFB Games. “Personally, I’m so curious to see how it goes… I want to know which puzzles you enjoyed, which moments scared you, what rank you get, which bonuses you unlock – I think I’ll be glued to YouTube and Twitch for a while…”

The abandoned Crow Country theme park is finally throwing open its rusty gates for intrepid explorers today, with horrifying secrets awaiting those brave enough to venture inside. In this new horror game inspired by classics from the PlayStation 1, the year is 1990 and you are Mara Forest, a young woman determined to understand why the mysterious Edward Crow closed his famed amusement park and how exactly he vanished.

Calling back to classic Survival Horror games of old, you’ll be managing limited resources to survive against the mysterious monsters that stalk the eerie tranquility of Crow Country, and overcome the many puzzles and challenges that stand between you and a disturbing mystery. You’ll hunt for clues, encounter curious characters, and immerse yourself in a handcrafted, richly atmospheric game-world evocative of late ’90s pre-rendered graphics.

And while you’re waiting for the game to download, check out Aaron’s review of Crow Country, which has a “compelling combination of graphic style and gameplay [that] makes for something that’s more unique than it lets on.”
