You remember Movie Games Lunarium’s Lust From Beyond, right? The mash-up of Giger, Lovecraft and Zdzisław Beksiński that features some sexy NSFW happenings? Well, a year after reaching its Kickstarter funding goals, the game is now slated for release on Steam on September 24th, according to the new trailer.

To make things even more interesting, there’s a free demo that covers the prologue. Don’t worry, according to the Steam page, it’s standalone short game without spoilers from the main game. The demo has you playing as a man named Christopher, who is tormented by visions of a sinister land full of lechery and pain. To learn its secrets, he joins the Cult of Ecstasy, whose members seem to know the answers to his questions.

As for the main game, you play as Victor Holloway, an antiquarian, who is likewise tormented by visions. He too joins the Cult of Ecstasy. The cultists, following Victor’s visions, attempt to enter Lusst’ghaa – the Land of Ecstasy beyond the borders of our reality. And yes, the feature of “bold erotic themes adapted to horror convention” isn’t a misnomer.

Keep the kids away.

‘The Backrooms’-Inspired Horror-Adventure Game ‘The Bathrooms’ Arrives May 17th [Trailer]

Published

The Backrooms internet phenomena (which has been capitalized upon in video game and soon in film form) is still ripe for picking. Developer/publisher Hidden Palace has their own inspired take coming later this month with The Bathrooms, which is set to arrive on Steam on May 17th. As you’d expect, you’ll be exposed “a plethora of strange, unexplainable occurrences and unnatural irregularities that are typically not fully understood.”

The story goes that you wake up near a foggy, deserted school with no memory of what happened. You soon discover that your beloved dog Shibosu has gone missing, having been kidnapped by the Custodian. You must now brave the realm of cold, endless halls to find him, with the hard part then being to escape the nightmare using your wits and skill. Complicating matters is that you discover that you’re being hunted by strange entities all the while. Not to mention the custodian.

The Bathrooms features a procedurally-generated world with nonlinear gameplay, meaning that no two games will ever be the same. You can choose to face your foes head-on with a weapon if you are brave, or choose a stealthier approach to avoid confrontation. Your survival in this nightmarish dreamscape depends on you having optimum “copium” levels. Inhale regularly and keep your copium tank full, or face an instant demise.

As you might expect, you’ll have to find ways to obtain copium in order to progress. Along the way, you may ponder your orb, a magical seeing stone with mystical revelations guiding you towards your goals, and sometimes warning you of danger. Use it wisely.
