Welcome to The Gamerheads Podcast! Mike and Phil kick off with a Halloween recap, sharing quirky trick-or-treating memories and Roger’s fictional cross-country "trick-or-treating world record" attempt. They also revisit Halloween classics like It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror, capturing the cozy nostalgia of Halloween night.

November Game Releases: Is the Big Season Back?

The hosts turn their attention to November’s releases, wondering if the month is reclaiming its former status as a top season for new games. They discuss Tetris Forever, Lego Horizon, Dragon Quest 3 HD Remake, and Metal Slug Tactics, noting a wide variety of titles but a lack of major holiday blockbusters.

Game Review Spotlight: Retro Realms

Mike reviews Retro Realms, a horror-themed indie game featuring classic characters like Michael Myers and Ash from Evil Dead. Though he enjoys the retro style and collectibles, he finds input lag disrupts gameplay. Despite this, the horror atmosphere and unique arcade setting provide a fun experience.

Creepy Card Games: Inscryption

The crew dive into Inscryption, a card-based horror game blending escape-room puzzles with roguelike mechanics. Trapped in a mysterious cabin, players face off against a sinister figure, building eerie tension through unsettling visuals and atmospheric storytelling. While the game’s tough, both enjoy the unique mix of horror and strategy.

Wrapping Up the Halloween Season: Farewell, Retro Game Frankenstein

With Halloween over, Mike and Phil bid farewell to their seasonal segment “Retro Game Frankenstein,” until next year.

In this week’s episode, while Roger is off on a ghost-hunting adventure, Mike and Phil take over to deliver a mix of spooky humor, horror movie reviews, and creative reimaginings of iconic video games.

Ghost Hunting and Horror Films

Mike and Phil share some light-hearted banter about Roger’s ghost-hunting quest in Maryland. Mike then reviews two horror films: In a Violent Nature—a slasher film reminiscent of Friday the 13th—and Terrifier 3, which pushes the limits of gore and depravity. Phil joins in on the conversation, comparing the intensity of these films to horror classics.

Reimagining Video Games: Horror Genre Edition

The hosts challenge themselves to reimagine well-known horror games in different genres. Ideas include a Castlevania-themed augmented reality game like Pokémon Go, a Resident Evil match-three puzzle game, and a From Dusk Till Dawn beat-'em-up inspired by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. They also pitch a turn-based Addams Family RPG based on the classic black-and-white style.

Game Reviews and What We’ve Been Playing

• Mike: Discusses his experience with Fortnite’s Halloween event (Fortnitemares) and the Halloween-themed battle pass in Fall Guys.
• Phil: Tried Mad Streets, a team-based beat-’em-up game on Game Pass, but found it lacking.

Dead Space Remake Impressions

Mike and Phil dive into the Dead Space Remake. They share their nostalgic moments and frustrations, including the frequent enemy ambushes and dark lighting. Despite a few drawbacks, they both agree that the game remains a horror masterpiece.

Next Week’s Game: Inscryption

The spooky season continues as Retro Game Frankenstein assigns the hosts to play Inscryption, a psychological horror card game.
