Inspired by a comment made on the Heretic episode, I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread here for everyone to put suggestions for halloween themed episodes, so they’re all in one place.
Let me start with Monster Bash.
Yes, it’s just another apogee game, but I think you’ll struggle to find a game with a more “halloweeny” aesthetic and vibe. It has just the right mix of spooky and silly, with plenty of pumpkins, zombies, and every conceivable kitsch halloween decoration and trope you could think of turned into a gameplay element.
It’s pretty difficult at times, but it looks great, level design is pretty good, and has some pretty good gameplay at points.
Also I would argue it largely avoids the shareware curse, and keeps adding new content right up to the end, but mainly just in the form of new textures and enemies. Although there is one level right near the end that introduces a totally new gameplay element.
So what other suggestions do people have? Feel free to put them here even if they have been mentioned elsewhere before.
