This game is absolutely Halloween-centric! The 3D action platformer is reminiscent of old-school favorites from 20 years ago (how’s that for raising the dead?) but with a fresh new face and endearing characters to seal the deal. If you’re going to want a Jack-o-Lantern, then you should only have the best: Pumpkin Jack. This game is a bit of crazy fun and perfect for Halloween. This is a great intro to the best video games for Halloween and I’m sure the full game will be high on the list for best games in 2021.

The prologue demo is currently available for free on Steam with the full version coming to PC and Nintendo Switch in the 2nd quarter of 2021. I love a game that encourages you to stop and look around, rather than racing through. And yet, on the other hand, it forces you to stop and reconsider the magical environment around you. Some portals grant rather unique perspectives, including “anti-gravity.” On one hand, it creates a new path for you. What really appeals to me is the creative thinking in both the problem-solving and exploration.

The artwork is breathtaking and sweet, in that forest spirits type of way. As a 2D platformer, the gameplay is simple with most of the challenge coming from the puzzles and the timing for your portals. The shards of crystal you find can be used to open small portal pockets into other worlds, changing your circumstances just enough to navigate the new dangers that abound. You play as Soli, a little novice wizard who is searching for crystals to help save his world. It is a beautiful action/adventure game, using puzzles, platforms, and portals to move you along the journey. Unbound: Worlds Apart is the perfect game to push on that veil and see how easy it is to cross over. During the time of Halloween, the veil between the land of the living and the land of the dead is at its thinnest. Let’s start with a sweet little game called Unbound: Worlds Apart from Alien Pixel Studios.
