Bitter Tides is a psychological horror game that combines both puzzle and some stealth into one surreal experience.

It takes place in a dream world where you remember some incidents in your life and monsters run amok. The game is currently in a demo phase where you explore a scary dream through a puzzle adventure as you explore an old abandoned church. The atmosphere is spot-on and what you’d expect from a horror game with some very surreal textures and visuals.

The audio is also very well-done and ambient. It gives you this sense of apprehension and dread as you play through the game that constantly makes you want to shut it off but for some reason, you can’t. I could get through the first 10 minute without taking a break.

The horror itself is mainly through the atmosphere and a few well-placed jump scares here and there. It makes you really wonder what’s going on as everything is anything but reality. The game really puts you into a dream-like trance as you try to solve the puzzles. You’ll be scared to even wander around in order to explore what the area has to offer but you must if you wanna solve the puzzles in order to progress.

If you’re a fan of surreal horror, you need to play this demo of Bitter Tides.

I play the newest to the crappiest indie games and filter them for the rest of the crew.

In other words, I’m a bottom-feeder. Why do I volunteer for this trash?

Indie devs: the last honest game creators.

Rail Theory is a third-person RPG with a very creepy atmosphere.

The objective of the game is to solve they mystery of the alien planet you’ve landed on. You play as a character named Flynn where a research project has gone awry. An outbreak of mutatns have taken over the planet and you’re the only “good” race left.

Rail Theory is awesome because each enemy is pretty much unique. They’re all randomly generated because the mutants infect every host in a different way- thereby creating a unique mutant. And the game takes this into play by creating different abilites for each enemy. Yes, each baddy has its own abilities and personliaty.

This adds a new gameplay mechanic because you can’t really tell what the game will throw at you. The game is pretty easy to at first, but it gets really difficult later on. The choices you change the environment and also changes the bosses you take on.

Rail Theory is a creepy game with an immersive atmosphere. Enemies, environments, and even the bosses are all unique. The difficulty ramps up quickly. And the resources (ammo) are scarce.

You’ll have to play well and careful as you traverse through the game. Try out Rail Theory. It’s still in alpha, but it’s pretty promising already.
