Galactic Crows has recently launched its latest title, Psychopath Massacre, a chilling horror puzzle game that thrusts players into the gruesome confines of a serial killer's home. The game, now available in early access on Steam, blends intense survival tactics with psychological horror, set against the eerie backdrop of a deteriorating Romanian house.

In Psychopath Massacre, players wake up as a captive of George Dinescu, a notorious serial killer whose murderous spree has terrorized the region for over a decade. The only tool at the player's disposal is a V.H.S camera, which they must use to document the harrowing events and navigate through the nightmarish environment. The game challenges players to solve puzzles and escape the house within a five-hour in-game time limit, all while avoiding Dinescu’s deadly traps and evading his acute sense of hearing.
 
The game’s developer, a solo indie creator known as Galactic Crows, explains that Psychopath Massacre is designed as a "scare simulator" with RETRO VHS quality graphics that enhance the terrifying atmosphere. Players can use their microphones to distract Dinescu or trigger specific in-game events, adding a layer of interactive realism to the experience.
 
The early access phase is crucial for Galactic Crows, who is eager to integrate player feedback to refine the game further. Planned improvements include enhanced enemy AI, additional rooms and puzzles, more difficulty levels, and an expanded in-game shop.
 
Psychopath Massacre is currently available at a low price during its early access period, with plans to slightly increase the cost post-launch. Players are encouraged to join the game’s community on Discord and Steam Discussions to contribute to its development.
 
For fans of horror and puzzle games, Psychopath Massacre offers a unique blend of scares, strategy, and interactive gameplay that promises to deliver a heart-pounding escape from the clutches of a madman.
 
The release date is Q2 2024
