I first heard of Demonschool about three and a half years ago, during the PC Gaming Show in June 2022. At that time, it was meant to launch in 2023. I’ve followed news about the school-life tactics RPG ever since, through multiple delays (2023 to 2024 to September 2025 to November 2025), and my anticipation just kept rising. Maybe that…
Announced today, the story-driven folk-horror mystery game The Fading of Nicole Wilson explores themes like authenticity, sacrifice, and the cost of fitting in.

Read MoreWhen the upcoming first-person horror game The Occultist was announced, I couldn’t stop thinking about how the protagonist looks like a cross between Johnny Bananas and John Krasinski. Apparently, I watch way too much of The Challenge and think way too much about the fanservice casting of Reed Richards. But…
Read MoreI don’t think I’ve played a lot of games developed in Indonesia, but the ones that I have remain with me: Coffee Talk, its sequel, and A Space for the Unbound are great examples. While more horror than cozy, Let Me Out can teach its players about Indonesian mythology. Fascinating!…
