Butcher's Creek
Hunt for snuff tapes with hammer in hand, photograph what you leave behind, and try to stay alive in a grimy nightmare with a dark sense of humor.
If you want short and unsettling games with dark humor, you can work through close-quarters fights, quiet exploration and odd stories across these ten titles.
These ten games published by David Szymanski share a taste for horror that is strange, grim and sometimes absurd, and you can move between fast action and slow exploration. Butcher's Creek has you facing cruel captors up close with crude implements in a woodland hideout, while Chop Goblins keeps you running and shooting through shifting areas. Iron Lung slows you down to guiding a cramped vessel through a red sea on a distant moon, and other titles have you wandering empty shelters and islands to piece together unsettling stories.
