Alien: Isolation Reigns as the Ultimate Alien Game Experience

Platforms: Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, PS5, PC Release Year: 2014 Developer: Creative Assembly Scare Factor: 9 Genre: Action-Adventure, Stealth, Survival Horror   After nearly seven years since its 2014 debut, Alien: Isolation remains unrivaled in the realm of Alien-themed video games, particularly when compared to recent entries like Aliens: Fireteam Elite. The contrast between these titles underscores a prevailing belief among fans, including myself: that a successful Alien game hinges on its ability to evoke horror or blend action with horror, rather than leaning solely on action. Aliens: Fireteam Elite, while a solid game, lacks the visceral horror that defined the Xenomorphs in Ridley Scott's 1979 classic 'Alien'. Instead, it opts for a more action-packed experience akin to James Cameron's 1986 sequel 'Aliens'. The Xenomorphs, once a source of terror, now serve more as targets […]

Unpacking the Layers of “A House with Good Bones” by T. Kingfisher

Publication date: 28- 03-2023 Genre: Horror; Southern Gothic Language: English Pages: 256 The title of "A House With Good Bones" is intriguing and sets the tone for a book that, despite its name, doesn't feature actual buried bones under or inside the house. Yet, it captures the essence of the story effectively. Samantha, the protagonist, is okay; the secondary characters are mostly fine; the antagonist is quite interesting; but Edith, Samantha’s mother, absolutely steals the show. Edith’s multidimensional character and genuine kindness, self-sacrifice, and ability to confront her fears make her a standout. Samantha, on the other hand, seems clueless for a long time. While Edith broadly understands what’s happening, Samantha spends a lot of time in denial. Despite this, I found Edith to be a much more likable character. The underground children might not appeal to everyone, but I […]

Publication date: 21-03-2023 Genre: Science fiction, Horror fiction, Alternate history Language: English Pages: 304 Nathan Ballingrud’s The Strange emerges as a captivating testament to the enduring appeal of science fiction and fantasy.
