What she does not know is that, at the same time, a series of murders are perpetrated in the city. Being on site to get clean clothes for the next day, we come across some raw violence from the hand of Womb Ridder doing his thing.

Saint Kotar – October 14
This horror experience takes place in Croatia where we control two characters who are involved in a series of murders, but beyond being simple crimes, everything is surrounded by mysticism, mixed with witchcraft and a kind of sect pagan. Something that accompanies the place is the fact that its inhabitants are very Catholic and this series of facts or events lead them to be extremists, reminding us of the old inquisition. The development of the game is based on conversations and the use of objects to be discovered as we advance in the story accompanied by a terrifying and very favorable setting on these dates.
Saturnalia – October 27
Arriving on the Halloween date, we meet this new representative of the horror genre in which we find ourselves in a region of Italy, the town of Gravoi, the same that is involved in a sect that surrounds this place. Something very relevant is that we can take control of several Saturnalia protagonists, so everyone’s stay in this place has personal reasons and a background that seems to indicate that it is well orchestrated so that it is integrated in the same story with the goal of finding out what happens instead and how it affected the lives of our characters. The game is framed in a story of suspense, terror and mystery, available for pre-purchase

When night falls in this place, anxiety will begin due to the arrival of fog and accompanied by ghosts, which will wait for us in the corners of the place where we are, at the same time we will try to avoid danger and discover what is happening, solve puzzles and get closer to the mystery that surrounds the place, all to end the Halloween night in style.
