Oh man, so there I was, just minding my own business when I stumbled across this wild sale on the PlayStation Store. And get this, they’re slashing prices on indie games! I know, right? Indie games are like the underdogs, the hidden gems, and you can snag some for up to, like, 75% off. Crazy! One game that’s really caught people’s attention, especially if you love getting the bejeezus scared outta you, is Outlast. Yeah, someone out there actually thinks this is the scariest game ever made. Bold, right?
Now, let me just dive into this really quick—Outlast is dirt cheap right now, just like five bucks! It usually goes for $20. What’s that, a 75% drop? Math was never my strong suit. But anyway, you gotta hurry because this deal’s slipping away like my New Year’s resolutions, and it’s gone by May 29 at, like, 3 AM Eastern. So maybe set an alarm?
Basically, the game plops you in these creepy mountains in Colorado, of all places. They call it Mount Massive Asylum—doesn’t that just scream “bad idea”? It’s this old mental home taken over by some sketchy corporation. And here comes Miles Upshur, our gutsy journalist, sneaking in because, why not? The game’s blurb just goes on about how things get spooky, blending science, religion, nature, and then… well, chaos, I guess. Miles is in for a bumpy ride, let me tell you.
Can’t get enough after beating the main game? They’ve got this DLC named Whistleblower. It’s like peeling back the layers of the story. Not on sale, though, so it’s gonna cost you another nine bucks. Whatever, right? It’s like a little cherry on top for $13.98 total if you nab both.
Oh, remember when Outlast dropped back in 2013? Yeah, critics were all over it. Metacritic gave it an 80 on average. Not too shabby for a game that’s essentially a night full of heart-pounding terror.
