A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Slay the Princess

What a crazy, unexpected gem. Without spoiling anything, it’s a hand-animated interactive narrative game with strong Stanley Parable influences.

That came across my recommendation queue the other day - despite my dislike for horror, it looks interesting enough that I might check it out!

I don't think I would classify it as a horror game really. It's got some gritty subjects that it dives into and there are a few storylines that can be a bit gruesome, but overall it wasn't really scary. It was more witty and philosophical at its core.

I watched a stream of someone who played through every ending because the game is just captivating and so well done.
