New Halloween Game Is My Favorite Asymmetrical Horror Game, But You’ll Have To Put Up With Some Jank

I’ve played a lot of asymmetrical horror games, including Predator: Hunting Grounds, Friday the 13th, Killer Klowns From Outer Space (remember that one?), and Dead by Daylight. For the most part, I’ve not really enjoyed them. So I wasn’t sure what to expect with the latest one of “those” games, Halloween: The Game. To my surprise, this is an asymmetrical horror game that I’m really digging, even if I’m also having to put up with some jank.
