The asylum as portrayed in Outlast is plucked directly from the horror genre. "When a place is so far removed from its real purpose, it loses meaning. To be contrary, I think I side with Adam when he said its kooky wakka wakka spooky spoo asylum is just too familiar: Our Outlast review from Ben Barrett was glowing, who said it "is not an experiment in how games can be scary, it's an exemplification." This freebie is to celebrate the end of Humble's summer sale, which I understand has a great many games going cheap. Hit the Humble Store before 6pm on Saturday (10am Pacific) and you can nab both Outlast and its prequel expansion, Whistleblower, in DRM-free and Steam key forms. One of the better 'peer through a camcorder viewfinder while hiding from spooky monsters' horror games which shambled out of the early tensies, Outlast is free for keepsies if you grab it in the next two days.
