October/November: Autumn Frights

As the leaves turn golden and the air grows crisp, it’s time to embrace the spooky charm of the season with our Autumn Frights theme. We’re diving into a world where the eerie and the enchanting collide. Explore haunted farms, mysterious forests, and eerie rural landscapes as you uncover the secrets hidden within the autumnal shadows. Whether you enjoy heart-pounding horror or prefer a more whimsical take on the spooky season, this theme has something for everyone.

Some game examples: Resident Evil series, Dead by Daylight, Alan Wake series, Little Nightmares, Oxenfree, Night in the Woods, Costume Quest series, Grim Fandango, Little Misfortune, etc.

FAQ

Do I have to participate in this month’s theme?
No, as with every theme, these are merely suggestions for anyone who is unsure about what to play next. If you already have a battle plan for your backlog and/or don’t like this month’s theme, you’re free to ignore it.

What happens if I don’t participate in the monthly theme?
Nothing.

What happens if I play all of my unfinished games this month?
Your backlog will be a much smaller place.

I don’t have any unfinished games - I’ve beaten everything I’ve started.
Really? well that makes one of us… I salute you.

I already finished my entry can I play another?
Go ahead - the goal is to reduce your unfinished games list. The more you can play the better.

I’ll go with The Darkside Detective AC Origins for the theme. Might even check out Little Nightmares if time permits.
I also have Mafia Def edition planned for the month!

Ughh…Mafia is giving me a headache. The game wont launch, generated a ticket with 2k.
Edit: Figured it out thanks to clean boot suggested by support. It was the NVIDIA panel causing issues.
