Cinematic Frights

In addition to those spooky additions, if you’re in the mood for some cinematic horror, The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is now available. This installment concludes the first season of the anthology and invites players to follow a group of documentary filmmakers who, after receiving a mysterious invitation regarding H.H. Holmes' infamous murder castle, find themselves in a terrifying predicament. While it may not reach the heights of previous entries, it promises a thrilling and engaging experience.

Artistry in Gaming: The Rise of Gris

Speaking of artistry, Gris stands out as a prime example of how video gaming transcends entertainment into a form of artistic expression.
