It uses pixel art, but has wonderfully creepy atmosphere and genuinely made me jump a couple times. There was a big update in 2024 (if I&#8217;m recalling correctly) that built out the game a lot, adding a huge amount of additional content to the campaign, which I think must have probably tripled the amount of game from the original release. New areas, new puzzles, new story, new endings&#8230; probably other things I&#8217;m forgetting as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In summary: I really liked Into the Gloom and highly recommend buying it to all fans of horror. If not, at least watch my let&#8217;s play. If not, at least watch <em>someone&#8217;s<\/em> let&#8217;s play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spooktober season&#8217;s started over on TE Video&#8230; like, a week and a half ago, but whatever.
