Back in the late '70s and early '80s, Britain was overtaken by treasure hunt fever, sparked by a childrens' book called The Masquerade and its promises of a valuable gold rabbit for anyone clever enough to solve its puzzles. The contest ended in allegations of fraud, and this cursed rabbit went on to become the basis for an outright scam called Hareraiser, a duo of games for microcomputers that were little more than unsolvable messes. The gold rabbit was auctioned off when the company was liquid...

Dark Souls II's development was famously troubled, and From had to completely change the game halfway through... without developing new maps. This has led to a situation not unlike what we see in the game itself: evidence of one kingdom that a new kingdom has built over. Illusorywall joins us once more to look at what might have been.

We've reached our final Stuart Gordon Lovecraft adaptation, which is fittingly the final Lovecraft adaptation Gordon had the opportunity to direct. His adaptation of Dreams in the Witch House was featured on the anthology series Masters of Horror, and it stars Ezra Godden, who previously featured in Dagon. Gordon brings the story to the modern day and substantially reduces its scope, eliminating the cosmic elements and leaving us with a modest story about demonic possession.

A groundbreaking 3D animated feature film became a very bad platformer developed and published by... drum roll... Psygnosis! So you know exactly what that means. Impressive but dated visuals and basically unplayable. We also talk about the fundamental problems with Toy Story and its message, and endeavor to rehabilitate Sid's image.

Warm up your pipes, you opera singing leeches, because we're going to talk about the game that we blame for murdering classic-style Resident Evil experiences. Taking place shortly before the events of the original Resident Evil, STARS Bravo team medic Rebecca Chambers and failed Chili Peppers clone Billy team up to fight through a train and some anonymous facilities full of zombies and leeches, all while being too ineffectual to hold objects.

It's very hard to be a Castlevania fan, especially when Konami decides that this very ugly and shallow Power Stone clone is worth releasing. Famously featuring a story line where a little girl wants bigger boobs, it also has hideous costume redesigns for a large number of beloved Castlevania characters, and a pretty lame excuse plot.

This week marks a departure for our Musical Identity series, as we look at one of the most beloved soundtracks in a Soulslike: Hollow Knight. Composed by Christopher Larkin, it's heavy on atmosphere and leitmotif, and it's tied very tightly to the tone and colors of the game itself.
