Guide an ex-cop in search of his missing wife and child in an old English inn through the mysteries in his way. Uses a point-and-click architecture recalling ICOM classsics such as Shadowgate. Source.
Okay, so I was looking for something horror themed to play for Halloween, but something that's also not too long. Because I'm lazy. So here it is: Missing, an indie horror/adventure game, which, despite its retro graphics, is one of the most disturbing games I've ever played. Without spoiling anything, I thought the ending was quite shocking, in an "Oh my fucking God..." kind of way.
Also, by short, I mean really short. You can pretty much complete this in one sitting. So yeah, not too many videos this time, but if you're even a little bit interested in disturbing, Silent Hill-ish horror titles, you'll love this. Well, granted you're a classy gentleman/lady with a good taste in games. I remember recommending the game to a few people (both in real life and here on EP), and they all liked it a lot. So you should too!
Day 1, Part 1:
I meant to say desk, not table. Bah.

Next time, I play through Day 2, and even more weird shit happens.

Day 2 begins, and we start learning more and more about the inn and its mysteries. Also, expect some "holyshitwtf" things to happen at night. Just like last time. :wacko:

Day 3! The plot thickens. I guess.
Next time, it's the finale. Which is a rather grim one. Don't expect Hollywood endings.

And the grand finale. Minor Death Note spoilers (don't ask) - I simply make a quick comment about Missing's ending slightly reminding me of Death Note's ending. That's all I say. But, y'know, if you have an active imagination... anyway, if this sort of thing bothers you, at least I gave a proper warning.
And even the video thumbnails are spoilerific, so:
Spoiler warning:
Also, and I mention this in the final video, but feel free to check out Fedora Spade, which is from the same developer as Missing. It's less horror, and more detective story/murder mystery, though. Kinda feels like a mixture of Snatcher and the Ace Attorney games.
Anyway, that's the end of my short and sweet "special Halloween LP" of Missing. Hope you enjoyed it.
Yes, it was actually a Halloween LP in October. Before it got lost in the rollback. :P
