If there was ever a film that was primed to be an asymmetrical horror game, John Carpenter’s Halloween is it. But after spending some time with it at PAX East, what makes Illfonic’s latest stand out isn’t the asymmetrical horror structure: it’s everything around it. Unlike most asymmetrical horror joints, Halloween isn’t just a 1v4 game where Michael takes on a group of Haddonfield residents. It’s the story of the town of Haddonfield, and what happens to that town when Michael Myers walks the streets. I wasn’t just trying to save myself or the other folks I was playing with; I was trying to save the other people in town, too. Previewed by Will Borger
