Mouthwashing
As strange as its title is for a horror game, it makes up for it with its compelling narrative and thrilling twists. Mouthwashing takes you into the vast expanse of space where a space freighter and its five-person crew find themselves stranded after an asteroid crash. Lost in the middle of nowhere with no way to contact the outside world, they’re doomed to slowly perish with their quickly dwindling resources…and sanity. Players will watch an agonizing journey through the crew’s last few months, uncovering the stories of each member of the crew as well as hidden secrets. After all, it’s all they can really do.
This indie first-person psychological horror title has made waves online for its plot and atmospheric horror, with many players praising it as a piece of art. While a short game in its entirety, it’s sure to leave a lasting impression.
