The wildest demo of Steam Next Fest combines FIFA with Silent Hill.
If you want to experience some truly bizarre demonstrations before the Steam Next Fest ends, you should try Fear Fa 98 right away.
Steam Next Fest is in full swing, offering a wide variety of game demos that can be tried for free. Throughout this week, the best demos of the event have been analyzed, including titles like Skin Deep and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown. If you've been following the news, you likely already have a full wishlist. However, with the event approaching its end in just a few days, it's time to explore some more unusual offerings.
One recommendation is Fear Fa 98, a quirky title that combines elements of Silent Hill with the gameplay of FIFA 98. This game represents the work of independent developer Jacob Jazz, who has created a surprising blend of arcade sports games and horror video games from the PS1 era. In the demo, players face off in a soccer match where their team consists of zombies and supernatural creatures on a field adorned with pentagrams and flames. During the game, characters throw out memorable phrases like "You're going to die!" while an original song accompanies the action.
The game allows players to pick up power-ups that trigger effects like slowing down time or granting extra speed to the characters. Additionally, there are absurd moments such as players being decapitated, contributing to the game's outrageous nature. Although the demo is only a glimpse of the concept, it manages to capture the essence of those bygone titles that, despite not achieving commercial success, became cult classics.
Fear Fa 98, which feels like a forgotten game from the 90s, unfolds in a fun and chaotic setting, leading players into a unique experience. The demo is currently available for those looking to experience something truly out of the ordinary before Steam Next Fest ends.
This event also features other interesting titles like Outcast - A New Beginning and Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, as well as more experimental proposals that often go unnoticed. With hundreds of accessible demos, there are plenty of options to explore, making it a great time to discover promising games that could surprise players.
