After a two-month celebration, Halloween night brings a bittersweet feeling of closure, making it vital to embrace the festive ambiance before it fades for the next ten months. If I didn’t already have plans for the evening and didn’t own most of the games featured in this bundle, I would definitely consider purchasing the Humble Games indie horror collection and diving into some of the best eerie titles available.
The Indie Fears bundle from Humble offers 13 highly praised indie horror titles for just $13—that’s only a dollar per game! Each game is a uniquely engaging experience that exemplifies the boundless creativity found in the indie gaming scene.
Highlighted Game: Mouthwashing
My top pick from this collection has to be Mouthwashing, a game I have been enthusiastically discussing for nearly two years. I’ll keep details to a minimum to avoid spoiling anything, but I must include a warning: it’s intensely dark and may linger with you long after you play. Nonetheless, it’s a brilliantly crafted, surreal commentary on corporate greed, combining elements that are mysterious, unsettling, and even darkly humorous.
Collection Overview
I’ve been a horror enthusiast for nearly two decades, and while I can’t provide an in-depth analysis of each game in the bundle, I will mention that they all boast highly positive feedback, with ratings ranging from 86% to 97% on Steam. Here’s the complete list of titles included in this bundle for your $13:
- Mouthwashing
- Buckshot Roulette
- Arctic Eggs
- Who’s Lila?
- Threshold
- Order 13
- No-Skin
- Kiosk
- Adios
- The Boba Teashop
- Massacre at the Mirage
- Terror at Oakheart
Humble claims this bundle is worth $114, and I have no reason to doubt their math. While Halloween may be ending tonight at midnight, marking the close of peak spooky season, this deal remains valid for another 21 days as of today’s date. With a price akin to a mediocre Chipotle meal, I highly recommend this collection, no matter the time of year.
Final Recommendations
As a long-time fan of horror games, I suggest exploring these fantastic Halloween-themed titles this year!
