As of today, the collector’s edition for season 2 of The Last Door has been added to Steam Early Access.
The Last Door is a low-res point and click adventure/horror game, influenced by the works of H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allen Poe. I reviewed season 1 of the game back in May and praised it for its stunning visuals and incredible, tense atmosphere.

By Dan Spence on August 10th 2015
MISSING: An Interactive Thriller is an unusual game. Developed by a Canadian indie team by the name of Zandel Media; MISSING is a throwback to the FMV games of the early-to-mid nineties (albeit one with access to modern-day technology). It is an episodic game, the first episode of which is approximately 45 minutes in length. It’s an odd beast to say the least.

Published by Devolver Digital, the game’s main premise is to aid a giant anthropomorphic bunny rabbit (by the name of BunnyLord) in his bid to be elected mayor.
