Aside from a house full of clowns (shivers!), is there anything more terrifying than an insane asylum? We’ve seen from a lot of movies and even a whole season of American Horror Story (the Asylum anthology of course), that dealing with haunted places where mentally ill, and possibly psychotic people roam the corridors (not that all mentally ill people are scary, mind you) is no laughing matter. A new game on Android called Sanitarium brings you to this scariest of places, just in time for Halloween.
Sanitarium is actually an old PC game from the late 90s, but now brought back to terrifying life by the folks at DotEmu. Just like the original version, it is a point and click adventure game where you end up at a creepy asylum after an accident that robbed you of your memory. As you try to make sense of everything, sometimes what’s real (which is scary enough) bleeds into what’s in your imagination, and it leads to your death sometimes. The good thing in this game is you can actually start over every time that happens.
The game has a great easy-to-use interface that is optimized for touch devices. But you can choose to play either on touch mode or on pad mode as well. It has an automatic save system so that if the real world actually interferes with your game, you can still continue where you left. There are 20 achievements that you can unlock and you can choose between full screen mode and original mode.
You can download Sanitarium from the Google Play Store for just $3.99. There are no more ads or in-app purchases, just that one-time payment.
