A new free horror game is available on Steam just in time for Halloween, and players are saying it’s surprisingly good! It’s a smaller, lower-budget title, which explains the free price, but fans of classic horror and shorter games should enjoy it. The game is a debut release from developer Hawt Combo. However, it’s currently unclear if it works well on the Steam Deck, though Steam Deck owners can try it out for free since the game doesn’t cost anything.
A new free game on Steam called The Roach Hotel has surprisingly positive reviews – currently 92% of players recommend it. However, it’s important to be cautious when interpreting this score. Free games naturally have lower expectations and people are less likely to be upset by a disappointing experience, which can artificially boost their ratings. Also, people often download free games on a whim without much research, unlike when they spend money on a game. This means a high approval rating for a free game is rarer and more noteworthy. Many free games on Steam don’t receive such positive feedback.
About the Game
The Roach Hotel is a scary analog horror game set in a once-grand hotel that’s fallen into darkness. You’re searching for your missing sister and must figure out what happened, but surviving the hotel itself might be the biggest challenge.
The trailer shows that The Roach Hotel has a visual style reminiscent of early PlayStation horror games, with grainy, VHS-like effects. Gameplay is similar to those older titles, focusing more on exploring the environment and solving puzzles than on fast-paced combat and intense survival horror.
As you may have noticed, The Roach Hotel is relatively brief, lasting around an hour or two. However, the developers intend to expand the game with additional content later on. What’s currently available is considered just the beginning – essentially, the first chapter.
Players are enjoying this well-designed game, with one reviewer calling it “pretty fun” and praising its story. Another user said it was “hella fun” and even got a few good scares while playing.
If you’re not interested in the new free game on Steam, don’t worry – there’s another one! This one is also retro-inspired, but it’s a fast-paced first-person shooter instead of a horror game.
