"The US-based indie games publisher Armor Games Studios and Portugal-based indie games developer Vertical Reach, are today very happy and excited to announce that their psychological thriller/adventure game “The Tartarus Key” is coming to the Nintendo Switch in 2022, alongside the previously announced PC version of the game." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Despite the plethora of high-definition scares out there, low-poly indie horrors have experienced a surge in recent years. There’s an audience out there eager for PS1-style spoopy entertainment. Following the success of their visual novel game Aviary Attorney, Portugal-based studio Vertical Reach decided to trade sparrows for scares. From this came The Tartarus Key, a psychological horror adventure game with both a Saw-esque nature and an eldritch aura.
If you can look beyond the graphical style and want a good old-school puzzler, then The Tartarus Key could well be right up your alley.
