This year’s “Steam Scream Fest” runs until November 4th and features a vast selection of not only scary titles…

Here are the (two) magic words that will brighten up any PC gamer’s day: Steam sale! And today is one of those days when it’s worth taking out your wallet and visiting Valve’s digital store. Because the long-awaited “Steam Scream Fest” has begun. Despite its name, the sale applies to all kinds of games. Although the central theme is Halloween horror, the prices of a number of RPGs, exploration titles, strategy experiences and many other games are also reduced.

As is customary with Valve’s campaigns, the offers will only be available for a limited time; to be more precise, the initiative ends on November 4th at 7:00 PM CET.

That means we have a whole week to evaluate the latest sales and choose which games will be added to our digital library.

In total, we’re talking about a sale that offers up to 90% off over 6,200 titles. If you’d like to spend some time browsing the endless shelves of games available on Valve’s store, we recommend you head over to Steam and check out the sale prices. In any case, we’ve rounded up a few titles that fit the “spooky season” and might be worth checking out if you haven’t already:

• A Plague Tale: Requiem for €19.99 (previously €49.99). If you’ve played A Plague Tale: Innocence and are craving more, consider that siblings Amicia and Hugo continue their adventures in A Plague Tale: Requiem, which is now 60% off on Steam.
• Alan Wake for €2.49 (previously €12.49). Want to jump into the Alan Wake saga after seeing the success Remedy had with the recent Alan Wake 2? Then you’ll be happy to know that the first title in the series is available on Steam for less than 5 euros.
• Alien: Isolation for €9.99 (previously €39.99). A classic in any horror genre. Best of all, Creative Assembly has already confirmed the development of a sequel, so there’s no better time to dive into this survival horror franchise.
