Horror Classic D Coming to Steam Today

For the older members of our audience, this must a throwback to their earliest days of playing horror games.

Created by the late Kenji Eno (who pioneered both horror games, as well as gaming designed for the blind), D is a nightmare that 1995 3DO, PlayStation and Saturn gamers simply weren’t ready for. Showcasing extreme graphic violence and dealing with seriously dark subject matter (like cannibalism), D is the crown-jewel in early messed up gaming, and could be argued to be a precursor to Silent Hill and Corpse Party thematically in the same way that Alone in the Dark is to Resident Evil (although D is a very different kind of game, it’s essentially an interactive movie).

Whether you remember this from the early days of 3D gaming, or have never heard of it before, D is suddenly available on Steam (on not just PC, but Mac, and Linux!), and while it may seem a little dated now, I urge you to at least take a look at it. It’s a disturbing and difficult gem from before practically any of our favorite horror games were even a thing, and this might lead to its sequel and pseudo-sequel D2 and Enemy Zero getting released on Steam as well.
