You’ve got your decorations and your novelty candy bowl with that little hand that jumps out and corrodes any trust the neighborhood’s children had in you, so there’s just one thing missing: an excuse to round out your backlog with a bunch of PC games on sale. Fret not, because Steam Scream Fest<\/a> is here with the goods until Nov. 3. at 10 am PT.<\/p>\n

There’s no shortage of apropos discounts on the spookiest software. Some of the top sellers<\/a> include nausea-inducing co-op hit The Outlast Trials<\/a>, going for a 70% discount<\/a> at $12, surreal card game Inscryption, on sale<\/a> for $8, and the devastating<\/a> psychological horror game Mouthwashing<\/a>, clocking in<\/a> at $9.09. In his review, PC Gamer associate editor Ted Litchfield called Mouthwashing “my favorite horror game of 2024, and one of the year’s best narratives, period.”<\/p>\n

If you’re not so keen on scares, there’s still plenty on offer. The entire Walking Dead Telltale series<\/a> is on sale for 5 dollars<\/a>, vampiric survival superlative V Rising<\/a> is half-off at $17.49<\/a>, and as always, you can grab one of the slickest co-op shooters ever conceived<\/a> for less than the price of a cup of coffee<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My personal recommendation would be Crow Country<\/a>, a classic Resident Evil-inspired adventure game with aesthetics reminiscent of the original Playstation. In his review, PC Gamer senior editor Wes Fenlon said it “evokes the simple pleasures of early survival horror.” You can pick it up during the sale for $10<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As with most seasonal Steam events these days, that’s not all; there’s a host of new Points Shop items<\/a> to nab in case you want a gif of Nosferatu to replace your current profile picture. The sale runs until Nov. 3 at 10 am PT, so get your scares in while you can.<\/p>\n
