IncGamers' Tim McDonald takes a look at Ice-Pick Lodge's horror... thing, and finds out what's going bump in the night.
From the preview: "I don’t know how Ice-Pick Lodge do it, but they have this phenomenal ability to make games that nobody else on Earth could make. Games like Pathologic, and The Void, and Cargo! The Quest for Gravity. Games that make you feel uncomfortable. Games that run on an inscrutable logic that makes half-sense in the tired hours before dawn. Games that give you a glimpse into some other impossible world that you’ll never quite understand but that nonetheless make you feel like you do – subconsciously, in some strange way – understand them.
And now, with Knock-Knock, they’ve done it again."
EB: The Quiet Man comes out Thursday, and it both sounds and looks like a game worth acknowledgment, but that's...just about it. Now, ports? There are some damn good ports coming out this week.
Knock Knock, a developer of chat-native games and technologies, announced today that it raised a $2 million funding round led by Raine Ventures with participation from games specialists London Venture Partners, Ludlow Ventures, and Gregory Milken.
Knock Knock allows you to join a mysterious story filled with horrifying sounds and a creepy environment. While the game has a cute design with very well-made graphics, players can easily find disturbing elements as they continue playing.
