"Dead End Road" is one of the more unique horror games I've played recently - it takes retro Pole Position-esque driving gameplay, mixes in some Pony Island surprises and houses the experience in a 14-town map you can freely route your way through on your way to a final confrontation with the demon that haunts you.

It's a game in which you manage resources, hunt items and take plenty of risks - a paranormal obstacle course that takes plenty of practice and trial-and-error to safely navigate. I would love to explain in more detail, but much of the game's appeal is in jumping straight in and flying by the seat of your pants as you attempt to figure out exactly how it works. I spent a little over 4 hours playing this trying to get a good ending - which is pretty great value for a $3 horror game on Steam.

Overall, I was very impressed with "Dead End Road" for what it is. If you told me I'd have fun playing a horror game about driving a car for 90% of the game, I wouldn't have believed it. A fun, surprising breath of fresh air in a stagnant summer for the horror genre.
