Clearing the Backlog is a new series in which I play 3 random games from my backlog in search of hidden gems. The plan is to cover games of all genres, themes, lengths, and price points, with the only criteria being that I haven't spent a significant amount of (or any) time with them. Hopefully we can find some new favorites along the way!
This time, we check out a barebones roguelike, a beautiful but flawed adventure game, and an awesome atmospheric FPS.

Spookys Jump Scare Mansion is a neat little indie horror game that combines atmosphere, simple gameplay, and off-beat humor into a unique and compelling package. While it seems fairly basic at first glance, Spookys constantly mixes up the formula to keep the player guessing what comes next. Definitely worth a look.
Also check out my channel for a mini-review, if that sounds interesting.

![Playstation Longplay - Bloody Roar (Long) [No Commentary]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/x_Pr4PmeaTg/mqdefault.jpg "Playstation Longplay - Bloody Roar (Long) [No Commentary]
Really gives new meaning to the concept of a longplay (Long play?).
Bloody Roar is a criminally-neglected series of one-on-one fighting games. The central gimmick/mechanic is that each character has a human form and a beast form which unlocks additional abilities. The controls are responsive, the battles have a large amount of depth, and the characters are all well-designed and memorable. Seriously, can we get a new sequel, already?
Ill be covering the other Bloody Roar games on the channel in the future, but figured Id start with the first one. Stay tuned for the sequels if you liked this one.

Disneys Toy Story has a reputation as a technical marvel, but one with an absolutely unforgiving difficulty curve. Is that accurate? Yes. Yes it is.
