spooky’s is a very interesting game, it’s sort of a weird, double-layered joke, spinning a typical “haha horror game that very blatantly makes fun of horror games” demeanor into a very legitimate and decently solid attempt at like, you know, actual horror. i would probably describe it as taking the piss out of games that are themselves taking the piss out of indie horror games.

my main issue with the game comes from the main campaign’s pacing, the randomly generated rooms will just never live up to how interesting and unique each specimen’s little intro setpieces are, even if the chases afterwards are fairly fun and tense (at least, the first time you encounter them)
