Steam Next Fest showcases a variety of game demos, and one of the most intriguing is Fear Fa 98. This unique title combines elements from classic horror games and sports, specifically merging the eerie atmosphere of Silent Hill with the arcade style of FIFA 98.
Developed by solo creator Jacob Jazz, Fear Fa 98 presents players with a bizarre soccer game featuring a team of zombies and occult monsters. The demo allows players to navigate a field adorned with pentagrams while scoring goals amidst chaotic gameplay.
The mechanics are straightforward: players pass the ball, run, and shoot, but the game’s twist lies in its dark themes and humor. Players can collect power-ups that create slow-motion effects or enhance their character’s speed. The demo also includes graphic elements, such as decapitations, adding to its unconventional charm.
This demo captures the essence of retro gaming, reminiscent of titles that might have been overlooked but later gained cult followings. It evokes nostalgia for a time when games were often quirky and experimental.
The Fear Fa 98 demo is currently available to play during Steam Next Fest, which runs for a limited time, providing players an opportunity to experience this unique blend of horror and sports.
