You should SEE my backlog, ladies and germs. It’s huge and scary like a mountain and just as hard to move. That said, Darkling Room‘s new game The Last Crown: Midnight Horror looks really fun. I’d never even heard of the developer until I got an email about this one and how it’s a lighter fright game that’s also an in-between chapter of The Lost Crown and the still in development The Last Crown: Blackenrock, two adventure games I now need to also play at some point. No experience with the first game is needed here as the game’s Halloween theme makes it a standalone “between cases” experience.

Take a gander at the trailer and screens below the jump and if you like what you see, you can grab the game on Steam for a mere $4.49, 50 cents of the normal price of $4.99 (a total BARGAIN for such a cool-looking throwback).

Even better, publisher Iceberg Interactive is having a nice little Halloween Sale on Steam where some of their more popular titles are DEEPLY discounted up to 80% off. You can grab everything from Darkfall: Lost Souls, Dark Matter, Darkness Within: In Pursuit of Loath Nolder, Darkness Within 2: The Dark Lineage, The Lost Crown, and even the undead-themed DLC, Gas Guzzlers Extreme: Full Metal Zombie (which requires the original Gas Guzzlers Extreme to run)
