Resident Evil meets BioShock in twisted new zombie horror

This Steam game boasts immaculate horror vibes, clearly taking inspiration from some of the best horror series of all time.

Some of the best horror games are the ones that actually give the players a chance to defend themselves. For some, this exacerbates the horror experience as the fact you need weapons reflects the severity of the situation you’re in.

We recently played Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, and really enjoyed it! Take a look at our preview video below

Resident Evil and BioShock are likely the two series you think of when horror games are mentioned and for good reason. Their mix of action and horror is masterful, so it’s no wonder games like Twisted Tower have taken inspiration from them.

Twisted Tower is a first-person survival horror which will hopefully launch on Steam later this year. It’s described as “Bioshock meets Willy Wonka,” an odd description but not untrue. The game takes the player through a warped game show called Twisted Tower, hosted by the eccentric billionaire Mr Twister.

The tower itself is packed with branching paths, horrifying, puppet-like enemies and traps hidden in every nook and cranny. Players are armed with a handful of weapons but make no mistake, the odds will be stacked against you.

The BioShock inspiration is visible through the game’s aesthetic, which is composed of Art Deco architecture, whereas the branching paths are reminiscent of Resident Evil games.

It’s shaping up to be quite a unique horror experience, and certainly one to add to your wishlist for updates on its release.

Unfortunately, the game’s developer hasn’t hinted at when the game will launch, though it’s a safe bet to assume it’ll drop sometime this year, and hopefully, it does because we want to play it.

When it launches, it looks like Twisted Tower will only be available on PC via Steam.
