Stealth horror game for mobile
HappyHills Homicide: Mobile is a free mobile adventure title developed by AiRa International. It's a side-scrolling stealth horror game that is inspired by the classic slasher films of the 1980s. In it, players take on the role of a serial killer going on a killing spree around the city, while avoiding capture from the authorities.
Compared to similar games like Evil Nun 2 : Stealth Scary Escape Game Adventure or Grandpa The Horror Game, HappyHills Homicide: Mobile portrays dark themes behind the guise of pixel art graphics that threads between gory violence and a comically disturbing presentation.
Clown on the loose
In HappyHills Homicide Mobile, you take on the role of a serial killer disguised as a clown who prowls the town to commit horrifying murders on unsuspecting victims. The whole experience is highlighted by gory and violent scenes that are rendered in pixel art style. The decision to go with this type of visual presentation makes for even more unique and interesting gameplay.
You will still need to exercise caution for your kills, and this is where the stealth element of the game comes into play. Each level in the game presents you with unique scenarios and challenges to overcome, be it sneaking inside homes, acquiring a murder weapon, or keeping out of sight until it's time to strike down your victim. It's all very dastardly and methodical.
Needless to say, the element of surprise is your strongest weapon in the game, not only for devising unique ways to execute victims but to go in and out undetected as if you weren't even there. The only downside in the game's otherwise crimson-colored experience is that it's a rather short one. An entire playthrough will only last a couple of hours.
Quick and painless
There is a lot to like about HappyHills Homicide: Mobile, from the gory and violent gameplay to the distinct pixel presentation, it's a disturbingly enthralling experience from start to finish. It's a shame that it's too short and things drop off sooner than you would have liked. Nevertheless, this is an easy recommendation for fans of these types of games.
