October 2018 'Nightmare' Loot Gaming Review
My disclaimer on this review is that both the box and the review are late. This is the October box that arrived around mid-November for us.
You'll get a large fold-out information sheet.
One side features a 28x22 poster - this month's poster features Soul Calibur 2.
The reverse side will walk you through the items in the crate.
Pac-Man Ghost Pin - Value $5?
This month's pin was so classic that it's probably one of my favorite from this subscription!
Soul Calibur 2 Shirt - Value $15?
The Soul Edge sword is featured front and center here. I kind of love it on the plain white tee since it really pops that lower graphic.
Psychonauts Beanie - Value $15?
Raz, the main character of the Psychonauts' games, is often seen sporting some goggles:
Source: Steam
So why not look the part? This is cool and subtle little nod to a small franchise with a pretty big cult following.
Silent Hill Coaster Set - Value $10-15?
That fog. I can still remember walking my character through that dang fog in the first Silent Hill and hearing my radio start to pick up activity - it was always a game I was glad to play with someone else! These are little vinyl coasters based on a seal from that first game - they're really nice flexible vinyl.
Cuphead Air Freshener - Value $5?
The final item is small, but it's also my favorite! Cuphead was easily one of the more difficult recent platformer games - but for me, it was a nice nod to those stupidly hard games of my past. I still love it.
Verdict: I liked the items from this box - I'm just not sure that all the franchises fit into the theme, it was a tiny bit spread out. The good part is that you'll know the franchises before subscribing. My easy favorite of the box is also the smallest item - the little air freshener - I think subscribing when features a franchise you're really into leaves you with the best probability of love the box.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? No - they're currently taking orders for the December 2018 box. You'll have until the 27th of each month to get that month's theme!
