About Haunted ROM: The Lost Cartridge

Haunted ROM: The Lost Cartridge is a collection of 10 single-player and multiplayer games inspired by horror and retro aesthetics from the ’80s and ’90s. You can play all 10 from the start, in any order. They range from frantic first-person shootouts and chaotic arenas to turn-based battles, exploration, strategy and branching narratives.

A corrupted cartridge

The games come from a mysterious cartridge that holds more than code. Details link the titles through a hidden narrative, gradually revealing a larger mystery. Glitches, visual errors, distorted sounds and apparent bugs act as clues to something trying to speak or break free.

The collection uses 8-bit and 16-bit palettes, low-poly visuals, crunchy sound effects and pixelated interfaces. Beneath the retro style, its games explore psychological and meta-horror, including moments that break the fourth wall.

Games in the collection

Four of the 10 games are described here:

  • Cult of Ascension: A roguelite arena tactics RPG in which you control a randomly generated cultist and rise through a secret order by surviving battles. Customize your powers, recruit followers and try to live long enough to perform the Rite of Ascension.
  • NULLand: A first-person escape room experience. You wake in a small room and hear something speaking through the TV; you have seven days to please your captor and discover how to escape.
  • Shadow Peddler: A narrative game of choices and exploration set in cursed lands. Survive hunger, madness and ruin, and collect enough Penitence Tokens to buy your salvation.
  • Spider Arena: A local competitive game for up to four players. Spiders armed with cannons fight in vertical arenas, crawling across walls and clinging to the ceiling to aim and fire.

Local multiplayer

Some games include local multiplayer, with options to team up against twisted creatures or compete in arenas.
