A Stylish Psychological Survival Horror Game With Pixel Art Set In The 90s

You have to check out this atmospheric horror game Holstin set in 90's Polish town.

Have a look at a psychological survival horror game set in an eerie town where people get lost. Developed by studio Sonka, Holstin lets you explore a terrifying town, interrogate locals, and fight grotesque pixelated monsters.

The story is set in a small, isolated town in eastern Poland in late 1992, where a friend of the main hero, Bartek, vanished making the character unravel the truth behind his disappearance and the sinister force consuming the town.

The town, Jeziorne-Kolonia, is said to be plagued by an eerie presence, with its streets overrun by a slimy substance and its inhabitants and surroundings deteriorating. The game is a survival experience where you need to scavenge for supplies and weapons to fight grotesque monsters that hide in the town's darkest corners. 

What grabs the attention here, is how the team came up with stylish pixel art aesthetics boosted by dynamic lighting and camera rotation, allowing players to explore the hand-drawn environments from multiple angles.
