Paul writes "One of the things that I've noticed recently is that in the games industry today, as a rule, there’s precious little originality. Almost every game that is released, if it’s not a numbered sequel, owes a debt or has a cheeky head nod to a game that has come before it. Well, Knock-Knock bucks that trend by being unlike anything I've played before. Not since Okami on the PS2 have I been so completely baffled by a game, and spent quite so long scratching my head and saying "What am I supposed to do now?!"."
EB: The Quiet Man comes out Thursday, and it both sounds and looks like a game worth acknowledgment, but that's...just about it. Now, ports? There are some damn good ports coming out this week.
Knock Knock, a developer of chat-native games and technologies, announced today that it raised a $2 million funding round led by Raine Ventures with participation from games specialists London Venture Partners, Ludlow Ventures, and Gregory Milken.
Knock Knock allows you to join a mysterious story filled with horrifying sounds and a creepy environment. While the game has a cute design with very well-made graphics, players can easily find disturbing elements as they continue playing.
