It’s officially October, which means it’s also officially the spooky season, and the time of year where horror fans feast more than they do the other 11 months.
This year’s feast for horror fans on consoles includes a previously PC-exclusive indie horror hit game, Amanda The Adventurer from developer MANGLEDmaw Games.
What started out as a game jam game between a group of four developers has grown into a nine-person team after Amanda was published on Steam by DreadXP.
Thousands of overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam later, Amanda The Adventurer will be arriving on PS5, PS4 and other consoles next week on October 10, 2024.
The basics of Amanda The Adventurer follow Riley Park, who is going through their late aunt’s house when they discover tapes of what appears to be an old children’s show.
However appearances can be deceiving, and Riley quickly begins to discover there’s a darker layer to these tapes when the show’s main characters, Amanda and her sheep best-friend Wooly begin communicating directly through the TV.
Unable to turn away, Riley keeps watching to see how this twisted take on Dora the Explorer unfolds.
To get a taste of the experience you can check out the trailer for Amanda The Adventurer for yourself, below.
Once Amanda the Adventurer is out on consoles, if you’re looking for more then you can look ahead to a sequel arriving later this year.
