Indie developers love making retro-styled games that look like PlayStation games you rented from Blockbuster and blitzed through in a feverish winter weekend. I’m glad, so here’s another. Cold And Afraid is a murder mystery that aims to channel the 1990s with chunky characters and lots of lovely dithering. You play a detective out to stop a serial killer with a grisly pattern who’s preying on the young women of an unnamed US city. On top of the obligatory tank controls, it aims to have “consequential dialogue choices” and a “Time Event system where you must meet certain people at specific times to forward different story threads”. Ah, forgive me, you’re here to see the chunky limbs. Here’s a recent trailer that shows ’em.
