Time to do the groceries

Retro gaming has made a comeback in a real and meaningful way. This recent wave of interest has game developers looking toward classic games of decades past for inspiration. In particular, PS1-style games have been popular in recent years, with their distinct low-poly graphics, paired with atmospheric horror elements that just work well together. EXPERIMENT: GROCERIES is an indie release title to add to the list.

In this game, you play a character that frequents a local grocery store daily to shop for supplies and other needs. One day, as you enter inside with your shopping list, you notice that things are amiss. From the sliding door to the food on the floor, everything is in shambles, and they get worse each time you visit. Explore and try to figure out what's going on.

With each passing day and visit, you slowly realize something sinister is afoot and wonder if your favorite grocery store is still worth the trip and possible danger. Before jumping in, you should be aware that the game can be finished in under 10 minutes depending on how you play. Some might say it a bit too short, but that will really be a subjective matter.

Something sinister at the counter

There is no shortage of great retro PS1-style games to play today. If you have played your fair share of titles and want more, EXPERIMENT: GROCERIES is another that you can check out. It offers the same distinct look and presentation wrapped inside a dark horror experience. It's a little on the short side, but it is still worth a play.
