In the cavern-like darkness of the arcade, the neon phosphor-glow
of the screen beckons you close. Drawn to the dancing pixels like a
moth to a flame, digging deep in your pocket you pull out a shiny
coin and thumb it into the slot as the electronic siren sings the
fanfare that marks your arrival. One hand on the joystick, the
other splayed across the control buttons, your pulse begins to
quicken. Ready Player One Press StartYou've barely begun but
suddenly the discordant bleeps are trumpeting your failure as your
8-bit adventure comes to an abrupt end. At least in the world of
the video arcade you get a second chance. But what is the true
price you pay when you make a pact with the digital demon? There's
always another coin, an extra life to be earned, a second
chance...Isn't there?GAME OVERA dozen stories of creeping dread and
savage horror inspired by the humble amusement arcade and the
classic coin-ops of yesteryear. Twelve tales to chill your blood by
twelve masters of the malevolent and the macabre.Just keep
reminding yourself, it's only a game...Isn't it?
