Indie developer Two Star Games just released Choo-Choo Charles, their promising horror game where the giant sentient train with spider legs tries to kill you.
Choo-Choo Charles is now available for PC (via Steam). The new open world horror game has the player riding around in their little locomotive – only the main enemy is the titular Charles, a giant murderous train with robot legs.
Charles is a huge sentient abomination with a big Pennywise-like grin, huge robot legs, and its sole mission is to kill everything it sees. Players have to explore the island, do missions, upgrade their train, and eventually get enough firepower to kill Charles.
Here’s a rundown on Choo-Choo Charles, plus its launch trailer:
