     The Quarry cast and characters

What to know who The Quarry cast and characters are? In much the same spirit as Until Dawn and Supermassive Games' The Dark Chronicles series, The Quarry follows the fate of several teenage camp counsellors as they remain stranded in Hackett's Quarry Summer Camp long after the kids have gone home.

But, as they prepare for one last blowout party, it becomes clear that something terrifying is hunting them down in this slasher interactive horror movie. You can play on your own and get the best The Quarry ending, but the horror game is perhaps best experienced with friends. You could either play online with everyone voting at crucial decision moments or with each other in the same room, passing the controller to whichever person chooses to have control of that character. With 16 characters in The Quarry, it's likely you would have your party would play as multiple characters.

Waking up in a room you don't recognise with a camera trained on you: the result of a heavy Saturday night, or the opening salvo in an inexplicable kidnapping? In The Tartarus Key, a PS1-style thriller/puzzle/horror game, it's definitely the latter. The free demo is out now, and throws you into the first couple of puzzles for the game as Alex, whose last memory is of being at home in her apartment. Now she finds herself locked in a weird study in a poorly lit mansion, with only a stranger on the end of a walkie-talkie for company. It was enough to staple this game right into the middle of my disorganised Charlie Day conspiracy board of games I'm interested in, I'll tell you that much.

The federal government in Australia have today proposed a number of changes to their National Classification Scheme as they seek to crack down on digital gambling and video games that promote it. The proposed changes would apply an R18+ (over 18s) rating to any game with simulated gambling, and an M for "mature" (over 15s) rating to any games with paid loot boxes, potentially changing the classification for games such as FIFA which were previously G-rated (for everyone).
