A horror game that is in the trial stage on Steam called Spooky Men is currently shocking with a listed price of 1 million USD, equivalent to nearly 24 billion VND.
Game publishers have the right to determine the selling price on Steam. While most video games are reasonably priced, there are still some “cheerful” publishers that sell games at sky-high prices.
Spooky Men is developed and published by Bloody Bear, originally released on May 9, 2023. When it first launched, Spooky Men was listed at a much more reasonable price, even as low as $0.59.
However, the game when it was in the trial phase also received many negative reviews, indicating that the game had many shortcomings.
In terms of game content, Spooky Men is an online multiplayer horror game with up to 8 people. The player must survive in a haunted house. Each can play as human and ghost, with the humans having to work together to escape the house while the ghosts attempt to wreak havoc.
Despite the “heavenly” price, the game developer also gave away a few free copies of the game. So some people were able to play the game despite the ridiculous $1 million price tag.
Not long ago, the Steam game The Hidden and Unknown made headlines when it sold for $1,999.90. But the $1 million price tag of Spooky Men blew away The Hidden and Unknown’s title of “most expensive game on Steam”.
