One of the favorite times of the year for many has arrived, one that is ideal for watching horror movies and why not, play one of those titles that keep you on the edge of your seat due to its gloomy atmosphere. Despite the above, it is also important to enjoy the friendliest and most innocent face of Halloween, one that takes scares to a friendly side so that even those who don’t like the horror genre can have a great time. In case you are one of those who simply cannot play a resident Evil or a Silent Hillbut you still want to live these dates in a great way, We present five Halloween-themed games that are not really scary at all… or if? Anyway, what we can assure you is that each one of them is fantastic in everything he tries.
Luigi’s Mansion 3
One of the great exclusive jewels of the Nintendo Switch that we believe should be talked about much more constantly. After this series had two fantastic installments, the folks at Next Level Games came back for a third installment, one that would take the concept of being inside a dollhouse to just the next level. Luigi’s Mansion 3 is brilliant any way you look at it. In addition to showing off one of the most impressive graphics on the console, the way in which each of the floors and rooms of the haunted hotel that we have to go through are built, will make your mouth drop to the floor due to its level of detail and especially everything, because of how creative the puzzles that you have to solve in them are. In addition, its cooperative mode makes it an ideal option to enjoy yourself with someone else.
MediEvil
Originally released for the first PlayStation back in 1998, it looked like MediEvil would become one of Sony’s flagship names, and while it spawned a couple of sequels, it has always remained a niche franchise. We believe that precisely these Halloween dates are ideal for you to give Sir Daniel Fortesque and company a chance to get an idea of why there is so much cult around him. In case you didn’t know, this is a 3D adventure title with lots of hack and slash elements. In fact, we could say that this work by Guerrilla, also the parents of Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West, was one of the first attempts to make this genre work. The good news here is that a remastered version of the first title in the saga was released on PS4 in 2019, which is very worthwhile.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Whenever one talks about classic video games, the LucasArts name comes up in one way or another. The legacy of this extinct studio is one of the richest in the entire medium. Among his most remembered and beloved works by fans we have Zombies Ate My Neighbors, a title released in 1993 for the Super Nintendo and for the Sega Genesis. This game was so special for a lot of reasons. The first thing was its crazy name and concept, which put us in dozens of dungeons full of monsters in which we had to save different characters from being devoured. Its arcade nature, combined with its very particular look and unparalleled pixel art style, made it become a classic in a short time, which, of course, is more than ideal to play whenever it’s Halloween.
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon
Our list simply could not be complete without some Indie recommendation, one that we are sure you will love. Within the new project of Koji Igarashi after his departure from Konami and that of course, he stopped working on Castlevania, was the collaboration he had with the geniuses of Inti Creates, who decided to take to the new series of this authentic legend of the video game design, to the 8-bit era. Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is much more than a love letter to the first stage of the Belmont, it is a reinterpretation of how the games of that time worked with modern touches and at the same time already known. Its theme and visual work make it truly irresistible and of course, a more than adequate option to enjoy on Halloween. By the way, its sequel is also one of the best options you can take.
batman arkham knight
Batman and Halloween have always had an intimate relationship. The stories of the dark knight that take place during the so-called witches’ night always have a special flavor. An example of the above is Batman Arkham Knight, a title that closed with the Rocksteady saga at the beginning of the last generation in a masterful way, taking the best of its predecessors and taking advantage of the technology that the PS4 and Xbox One allowed at that time. Yes, in case you don’t remember, this game takes place on Halloween, which makes it one of the best options available for everyone who wants to live these dates without being gripped by the seat full of terror. In addition, it goes without saying that it is currently one of the most accessible and easy to get games.
