When reason sleeps monsters are born.

Knock-Knock, a unique survival-horror adventure with puzzling mechanics, original cartoon graphics, and twisted atmosphere, is available 20% off for Windows and Mac OS X, on GOG.com. That's only $7.99 for the first week.

[url=http://www.gog.com/game/knock_knock][/url]The developers of Knock-Knock have chosen to shed some light on the unsettling origin of their creation, on their official website: In late November, 2011, a strange and troubling event has happened to our studio. We have received an anonymous e-mail which suggested that we should produce some "unconventional" game based upon the materials attached to the letter. Such offers are a dime a dozen and most of the time they barely deserve any attention at all, however, this one seemed quite different.The attachment contained a set of 19 files added to an archive titled "lestplay". The files (snippets of text, scraps of audio recording, video footage fragments) as well as the style and wording of the message itself appeared to be rather disturbing. The surface examination did not reveal anything straightforwardly terrifying, yet we could not escape the feeling that something truly sinister was lurking underneath.The stranger was begging us to complete the project he has started, yet he also made us well aware of the risk we took as the proposed ludic situation would potentially explain what calamity befell whoever has compiled the ominous archive, thus urging ourselves to meet the same fate.

Knock-Knock is one of those games with a concept that may seem weird at first, but turn out to be really hard to put down once you start playing. In this bizarre survival horror title you'll be defending your cabin in the woods from the phantasmic "guests" that come out of the darkness and roam around the poorly illuminated rooms. Avoid encounters with the abominations of the dark, repair your home, and figure out how to survive a night. With twisted visuals and many interesting gameplay ideas will bring you both thrills and fun. Be careful though, it's dark in there and you might get eaten by a grue!

Some doors are better left unopened, but it would be rude to ignore monsters going Knock-Knock, for only $7.99 on GOG.com. The 20% release discount offer lasts until Wednesday, October 16, at 9:59AM GMT.

Roman5: The main character looks like an Undead from World of Warcraft

deonast: Probably lack of sleep trying to keep the ghouls out at night
Just as well the main character didn't figure out how to build a ghoul proof panic room and just sleep through it all until the ghouls go by daylight. Would be a very boring game :)
so it's basically a Home Alone "remake"? :)

Sounds intriguing, and I don't recall ever trying a game from this publisher, so I think I'll give it a go. Thanks again GOG for bringing out games I might otherwise have missed!

EDIT: This prompted me to click on the company name and find Pathologic. That sounds really good to, so grabbing that as well. Mission accomplished with this promotion, GOG. :)

I love the art-style. Will probably pick it up this evening.

It's also a bonus that comes with the game as of now :)
This looks like a great tension building activity.

Mivas: W00t, a new game from Ice Pick Lodge! I'm really curious about this one.
We were talking about this one :) I've beaten it (geting the good \ best ending) since then and I can fully recommend this little gem. If what I've been told in highschool is true and 'art' is everything that makes you go through extreme emotions, this game is art. It made me swear out loud, it made me show middle finger to the monitor (actually, the creature on the monitor), it scared me shitless at one point (no spoiling, even if I'd love to tell you about it).
Now I have to re-buy on GOG as I promised :)
Now, where is Tugor \ Tension \ Void, so I can complete my 'creepy IPL games GOG collection'? : ))

this is by far the creepiest IPL game. REALLY recommended.
Going on my wishlist faster than the speed of light! ;-)

I've followed the thread ;). Ahh, the last time I shaked a fist or flip a finger at screen, these games didn't have good controls at all. Bad, bad memories.

It doesn't seem to be a case of this game, I'm going to buy soon.

It wasn't about the controls (actually, the controls are almost the same as in The Cat Lady - arrows and space + scroll to look around the house), it was about this headles freak temptimg me with sweet voice and 'killing' (rewinding) me when I'm, so close to victory and when time is of the essence :)
