I have a rule: no more than one post about a horror game per day. The mind can only withstand so much, after all. But POOLS isn’t really a horror game. It’s just a walking simulator in which you explore a bunch of underground swimming pools. True, their size and layout defy explanation – what is this, a swimming pool for Slender Men? – but look, there are cute covered slides you can ride down in first-person. You know, like the ones you used to enjoy as a kid. Always that element of anxiety though about getting stuck halfway down, am I right?
