I saw this game exactly one time when I was 13 and I never forgot it until tracking it down and playing it on an old Windows machine in 2012. Kids horror is some of my favorite horror; the best examples waver between being silly and scary and it's the perfect mix for me. On top of that, this game's got tons of cheesy green screen FMV and yes, even a brief cameo by Jeff Goldblum as a vampire. Perfect mood.
The tech's a little interesting, too, seamlessly blending FMV actors with pseudo-3D backgrounds you can scroll around inside of in real time without interrupting the FMV.
I don't think it's been re-released at all since its original run in 1996. It deserves to be seen by a wider audience.
Fantastic point and click FMV with an incredible art style and Jeff Goldblum as a vampire seducing underage girls! What more do you need?! The best Spooky-time game for me when Halloween rolls around.
I played so much of this game as a kid, and I think kids (and adults!) of the modern era can get a lot out of it too. Not just because Goosebumps is still popular (though admittedly not a juggernaut anymore) but also because it's a relatively easy and exciting point and click FMV game that's just perfect for getting people into the genre. Jeff Goldblum, Isabella Bossellini, and more star in it, and I think more people need to see this spooky little game.
A very special point and click adventure game! A direct sequel to the original book ‘Welcome to Horrorland’ and actually predating the original TV series by a year, it captures both the scary and fantastical aspects of Goosebumps without fail (probably thanks to the involvement of Steven Spielberg). While it seems like your regular bargain bin fare it’s so much more than that. Definitely a must play for all fans of Goosebumps AND point and click adventures.
This was one of the first FMV games I played back in 96 and it was a lot of fun. I remember actually getting scared at certain points. The highlight was the werewolf chase and Jeff Goldblum as Dracula. You guys should definitely bring this this one to GOG.
Had this game when I was a kid, my parents bought it for me on a trip to Staples or Wal-Mart when it first came out. I remember it was a Saturday night, I installed it, and played it until 4 or 5am. I got stuck at the Werewolf trapped in the freezer part. I found a way to play it on my PC, but I'd much rather have a legit version of it from GOG. Just thinking about the game brought back so many good memories. Man, I love it.
Black DahliaBlack Dahlia is a suspense thriller based loosely on the unsolved California murder of Elizabeth Short, nicknamed "Black Dahlia" for her favoritism towards black clothing.
The game is a point-and-click puzzle-solving adventure with live action cutscenes. Full 360 degree horizontal and limited vertical panning allow the player to scan each scene with the mouse. Jim's in-game notebook acts as a journal as it records everything of importance that he has examined.
Black Dahlia has over sixty puzzles dispersed over nearly as many locations. They range in difficulty, style and type including jigsaw, manipulation, code breaking, mazes and object based. Well publicized bypass codes can be used to "auto-solve" them without compromising the game, since no score is kept.Horror Thriller

Ratchet & ClankRatchet & Clank is a platform/adventure game in a similar vein to the 3D versions of the Rayman, Sonic, Mario, or other games. It involves the two protagonists Ratchet, a furry alien creature, and Clank, a nerdy little robot, going on a quest to find Captain Qwark and ultimately to help save the galaxy.
Ratchet & Clank includes many of the best features of previous similar games, but makes itself unique in a number of ways. Firstly each of the game's levels are huge sweeping vistas with extremely detailed buildings which are visible at all times (i.e. there is no distance fog). This means that a building on the horizon is not just a "backdrop"; in all likelihood Ratchet will be exploring it in a few moments time. Secondly, the game includes a number of sub-games, such as a space fight sequence and a number of turret shoot-outs which are akin to Missile Command in the first person.
The game has over twenty levels (planets) and includes as many real-time cut-scenes which tell the story. Also of note is that the story is non-linear, requiring the player to return to previous levels to complete objectives and to choose between multiple paths forward. There is also a respectable array of weapons, gadgets, and accessories to find or buy as the game progresses, which offer some unique gameplay features.Action Comedy Science fiction
