A place in which to lose yourself. The best sort of game. Recommended, especially if you like Nigel Kneale, weird fiction, BBC Ghost Stories or, goddamn it, Broken Veil.

“...sticks with you like the taste of shit tequila and two packs of cigarettes. It captures a certain small town vibe, crushes it up with Lynchian-esque vibes and a great soundtrack"

Finished The Excavation of Hob's Barrow. Excellent point-and-click Victorian horror with a smidge of Lovecraft. Feels like an Eggers film at times. Fully recommended for slow, cosy horror fans. I comment @cloakanddaggerg.bsky.social and can't wait for their next game.

10. The Excavation of Hob's Barrow

Speaking of Folk Horror, here's one of my favourite Point & Click Adventures from recent years, it's fully voiced and the voice acting is absolutely fantastic, it draws a lot from The Wicker Man and the works of M. R. James and builds such a compelling narrative.

Was really impressed by the demo for The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow by @cloakanddaggerg.bsky.social on Switch.

Great pixel animation and excellent VO. Also love the surreal/horror vibes teased at the end.

Feels like the perfect game for fans of mystery/suspense, dark comedy, and horror.
