Hey, folks! Tomorrow is Halloween! Naturally, there are a lot of great horror games out there right now. Alan Wake 2 is great. Go get it.
But for this week’s less than $5 game, I thought I’d serve up something spooky, short, and most importantly, cheap. You’re about to go to your friend’s uncle’s cabin and… FISH! And good news: It’s only $2 on Nintendo Switch and - right now - $1 on Steam.
ONE FUCKING DOLLAR.
If you want a deeper dive, I wrote a whole article about it a little while ago. But all you need to know is that it looks like an old Game Boy game, and shit gets real weird, real fast. While it doesn’t pack the narrative punch of a game that runs longer than two hours, it is weird and spooky - and there are multiple endings. As well as ways to die.
So if you want a horror game that’s the length of a horror movie and requires no commitment and almost no money: Fishing Vacation. Trust me. It’s freaking $1.
I’d buy that for a dollar!
