Fictiorama Studios and AMC Games have announced the PC release of The Fabulous Fear Machine. Players looking for campy horror fun perfect for the Halloween season can pick up a copy via Steam, Epic Games Store, or GoG.com. For the next several days, players can purchase the game with a 15% discount before it heads to its normal price of $17.99.
The game features a cool comic book art style reminiscent of 50s-era pulp horror novels. The single-player campaign is divided into three chapters that “focus on a new Master of the Machine as their twisted morality play unfolds.”
The dev team released a trailer to showcase the awesome art style and set the stage for spooky Halloween hijinks. Viewers will get a peek at gameplay mechanics, art style, story, and more.
Features
- Pick Your Poison: From cryptids like the Black Dog to urban legends like Bloody Mary, to conspiracies like Reptilians—with over 80 Legends to choose from, you’ll craft a custom blend of terror for each city you visit.
- Horror Evolved: Plant the seeds of fear in fertile ground. Watch and listen to how the media reacts to your Legends. Feed them, then see them grow more powerful and effective.
- The Job Done Right: Your strength is strategizing; leave the dirty work to your Agents. Send them to explore new locations and infiltrate your enemies, making interesting choices along the way.
- An Equal and Opposite Reaction: Rivals and the forces of good seek to undo the Machine’s influence for their own ends. Plan accordingly, or you may find your own Legends twisted into inspirational stories, mascots, or other sugary-sweet clichés.
- A Tale As Old As Time: You’ll direct the stories of several Masters operating in different regions of the world. Along the way, explore the history of the Machine, its enemies, and the Agents who aid you.
