I enjoyed all of these games, definitely some devs to follow for future projects! Love the hub world as well. Some were more spooky than others but they all had something to offer and kept me super entertained!

Update: Upon looking back I have more fond memories of all the games included with the exception of 1 title. I think most people who love this genre will enjoy this series. I have since edited the below review to suit my thoughts on the anthology. I would love to give this collection a glowing review but to be honest I felt like a lot of the games here were more weird than scary. There are a few great experiences...

Very interesting, short but sweet horror games. Some of them really absurd, some of them more akin to other ones we have seen. Really enjoyed it!

The forgotten tapes: analog nightmares is a collection of, to be honest, rather amateur games, with the connection to all of them being analog horror themes and bad jumpscares. Here are all of the games reviewed individually. The Other One: A somewhat unremarkable trip through several tapes that make me wish there was some good audio to go along with this game that could've really helped the atmosphere, but as it is,...

I love anthology games so "The Forgotten Tapes: Analog Nightmares" (AN for short) seemed right up my ally. Unfortunately the games featured in "AN" are a pretty mixed bag and generally of lower quality as compared to something like a "Dread X Collection". I could just leave my thoughts as that but in the spirit of anthologies I wanted to go through each game with a micro review. The follow games are ranked worst to...

If you enjoy short horror games like the ones from the DreadX collections. Then this is worth buying. But don't expect anything crazy. The content is very mixed. A few of the games are actually really cool. And a few of them are hot garbage. The hub world is lacking severely though. They say in the store page, as a selling point, that the games are not locked behind any complex puzzles. That's fine, but the hub...

Analog Nightmares is a collection of 9 short horror games by 9 different devs, each set against the backdrop of Analog Horror. There is a small hub world to walk around & explore and you use this area to access VHS tapes which act as the games. There are some really good games in here & all of them are fun to play. I like it when developers come together to create something like this. There is a decent amount of...

Obviously since I worked on this collection I'll give it a good review, but it's genuinely a treat to play through these games. If you want to have a laugh and a scare simultaneously, this collection is for you. It's a ton of fun.

Most of these games are vibe based, and in that capacity several of them really excel. My only real complaint is that a few of them have really slow movement and seem to rely on backtracking to pad length, and most of the endings were a bit weak. Over all, I had a good time.
