Title. I’m looking to add some new games to the library to play I honor of my favorite holiday. What are some of your favorites? Bonus points for hidden gems!
The new FIFA.

I did enjoy The call of Cthulhu though. Not really scary, but I’m a Lovecraft fan (minus the racism/Xenophobia).
For the sad? Probably SOMA. It’s got a pretty distinct style of horror and even though it was really popular I don’t hear a ton of people talking about it any more.
I have heard the game Lisa is an interesting mix or humor, sadness, and horror.
There’s also some interesting games on itch.io amongst all Five Nights At Freddie’s style games. The Salt Order is one of my favorites.
A few options that range from slightly spooky to pretty scary: Alan Wake, Oxenfree, Dead Space, Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach, Night in the Woods, Inside, Limbo
The Cat Lady. It’s a point and click style game that is well recieved even ten years on since its release, and has since become the first in a trilogy of sorts. Good writing, multiple endings, sad+spook with some good twists. Gameplay is definitely limited, art can be a bit unusual, but what it has to offer is worth your time.
There’s plenty enough sad in the real world. Costume Quest is the superior spoopy game.
