Nice one, good luck with this, can’t wait to read it :)

I covered a few things like this in Curious Video Game Machines - Korea, bootleg consoles, Brazilian SEGA consoles, etc - but there are loads more stories out there…

Wow, that is a confusing press statement.

Thank you so much for stepping in, Jamie, I massively appreciate it! Glad you had fun!

There’s something creepy in itself about looking through old family photos of people you don’t know. So when you occasionally spot hard to see spectral forms looming in the back of these photos, the creep factor goes through the roof. Wonderful stuff. 5/5

The other highlight was Shutter Story from @frostwood.bsky.social. It’s a game where you have to examine old photos for signs of haunting. 4/5

In addition to being utterly weird, it’s also very, very funny, and the brilliant dialogue made me laugh out loud. The horse party in particular was a joy. Watch out for this one, studio link below. 3/5

There were two games that really stood out for me. One was Tölt from @enigmastud.io, a game about being a horse 🐎

With its fuzzy low-poly graphics it felt like a cursed object. I loved it. 2/5

Oooh, that’s the Korean version, released by Daewoo, I think!

Daewoo had some wild consoles of its own, too.
