Albino Lullaby says it is a horror game that doesn’t rely on jump scares or gore to get under your skin. No this is a game that wants to feed your brain crazy, surreal images that make you feel like you should run away as fast as you can, maybe even ALT-F4 and nope the hell out out of there never to launch the game again. Watching the trailer above I’m sure you can already see the glimmer of hope that Albino Lullaby is actually telling the truth. I normally don’t read to much about horror games because, I think they play better that way, but I do know Albino Lullaby has a VIVE and Oculus logo on it’s Steam page meaning you can really put yourself in the game and see if how long it takes for your brain to reject this new VR nightmare. The game will be out tomorrow, September 15th 2015 on Steam and you can either pick up the first episode for $9.99 or let your freak flag fly and pick up the Season One pass for $24.99.

PRESS RELEASE
Ape Law Announces Albino Lullaby for PC
A Psychological Horror Adventure Inside a Twisted World
BOSTON, MA – SEPTEMBER 14, 2015 – Independent studio Ape Law is set to release Episode 1 of the psychological horror game Albino Lullaby for PC tomorrow, September 15. The studio, comprised of veterans from Bioshock: Infinite, top-selling indie title Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and the Tomb Raider reboot, will launch the fully VR compatible game.
Hailed by Rock, Paper, Shotgun’s Adam Smith as, “2015’s smartest horror game…” Best summarized by Polygon’s Collin Campbell, who wrote, “Part Stanley Parable and part Alfred Hitchcock… This is a sick place, full of sick allusions and sick jokes”.
“We are hitting the reset switch on the genre and bringing horror games back to the days of film when suspense ruled and great masters like David Lynch and Alfred Hitchcock used our minds to scare us more than anything onscreen,” said Justin Pappas, creative director of Albino Lullaby and Founder of Ape Law.
Albino Lullaby: Episode 1 is available now for $9.99 or as part of the Season One Pass for $24.99 and can be purchased on Steam:http://store.steampowered.com/app/355860
