It’s got some solid voice acting to go with its lo-fi visuals as you use your anomaly detector to hunt down the mystery of the missing villagers of Hearth.
The disc is practically a variety pack, with all sorts of different spooks. Ghastly Goodies (on Itch), for instance, looks a bit more cute than creepy with its little candy-collecting kiddos in costumes. Risu (on Steam) is asurvival horror gamewhere you’ll solve puzzles while hiding from monsters. It definitely gives of earlyResident Evilvibes. Golly it’s even got a cell phone from the era.

Despite the title, Haunted PS1’s creators say that you can expect games in the demo collecion to push the definition a bit. “HPS1 is a community where we try to accept all low-fi and retro art directions,” they say. “As such not every game has to be 3D or have the particular visual quirks of any specific hardware. In a similar way we do not require the games to have a strict horror theme, instead they can be atmospheric, have a slight unnerving twist or even just feel so of the era that we can’t resist loving them and wanting them in the collection.” Basically, rule number one is rad demos.
The demo disc hasgotten pushed to tomorrow, March 25th. When it does launch, you’ll find it over hereon Itch. In the meantime, you can still try out the2020 demo discwhich was also swell.
