Gruselige Spiele mögen in der PlayStation-Ära mit Titeln wie Resident Evil und Silent Hill in den Mainstream Einzug gehalten haben, aber die interaktive Unterhaltung hat sich schon immer zu ihren dunklen Seiten hingezogen gefühlt. From Ants to Zombies ist ein Schaufenster für die bemerkenswerte Bandbreite an Horrorspielen, die in sechs Jahrzehnten, von den 1970er- bis zu den 2020er-Jahren, und auf über 70 Hardware-Plattformen, vom ZX Spectrum bis zur Xbox Series X, entstanden ist.

Mehr als 130 Horrortitel werden in dreizehn thematisch gegliederten Kapiteln analysiert und kontextualisiert, wobei eine Vielzahl von Genres (von Rail-Shootern bis zu Open-World-Rollenspielen), Schauplätzen (von Spukhäusern bis zu verseuchten Raumstationen) und Aspekten der Angst (von schleichendem existenziellem Grauen bis zu magenumdrehenden Gewaltausbrüchen) abgedeckt werden. Die Diskussion wird durch exklusive Kommentare von Horror-Pionieren wie Keiichiro Toyama (Silent Hill), Jane Jensen (Gabriel Knight), Ken Levine (System Shock 2), Sandy White (Ant Attack), David Riordan (It Came from the Desert), Paul Norman (Forbidden Forest), Graeme Devine (The 7th Guest) und vielen anderen belebt.

Auf mehr als 600 wunderschön illustrierten Seiten bietet From Ants to Zombies die Gelegenheit, ehrwürdige Klassiker neu zu entdecken und zu Unrecht übersehene Perlen zu entdecken, um den unerschöpflichen Reichtum von sechs Jahrzehnten Videospiel-Horror zu erschließen.

From Ants to Zombies wird als Hardcover mit einem einzigartigen, im Dunkeln leuchtenden Logo und Text geliefert. Wie bei allen Publikationen druckt Bitmap Books lithografisch auf hochwertigem Papier, um die prächtigen Bilder so zu präsentieren, wie es die Spiele verdienen. Außerdem verwenden sie eine fadengeheftete Bindung für zusätzliche Haltbarkeit und die Möglichkeit, das Buch flach aufzuschlagen. Das Cover zeigt ein speziell angefertigtes Kunstwerk des Künstlers Vasilis Zikos.

The "Lazy Professional" Look: Is Hands-Free Luxury Actually Real?
Size: 9.5, Color: Black Napa Leather
Living down here in Florida, my footwear needs are pretty specific. It’s hot, it’s humid, and I spent half my life rushing from the car into work or a meeting. I’ve reached that age where I value efficiency just as much as style—maybe more. I’ve been eyeing the Marc Joseph New York Hands-Free Slip-on Penny Loafers for a while, and after putting them through the wringer, here is the honest truth from someone who just wants to look sharp without the hassle. The "Just Step-In" Reality Look, the big selling point here is the "Hands-Free" tech. We’ve all seen the commercials for those athletic slip-ins, but finding that in a legitimate leather penny loafer is a different game. Does it work? Yes, surprisingly well. The heel counter is firm enough that it doesn’t collapse when you slide your foot in, but it doesn’t feel like a piece of plastic digging into your Achilles once you’re in. For those of us who are tired of bending over or hunting for a shoehorn every morning, this is a genuine quality-of-life upgrade. The Florida Factor: Comfort and Style The leather is actual calfskin (on most models), which is a must for the Florida heat. Synthetic shoes turn into a sauna within ten minutes, but these breathe reasonably well. The aesthetic is classic—it’s a "professor" shoe through and through. You can wear them with chinos and a blazer for work or throw them on with some nice jeans for a weekend lunch. Inside, they’ve got a gel heel insert and a padded footbed. It’s not quite "walking on a cloud"—let’s not over-hype it—but it’s a massive step up from the hard, flat soles of traditional dress loafers. I’ve spent four hours on my feet lecturing, and my arches didn’t hate me by the end of the day. The Sizing Gamble Here’s where you need to be careful. The consensus from other guys (and my own experience) is that the sizing is a bit of a coin toss. They tend to run a little large and sometimes wide. If you have narrow feet, you might find the sides "gaping" or flaring out when you walk, which kills the sleek look. I’d recommend ordering a half-size down if you’re usually between sizes. The Breakdown The Pros: True Hands-Free: You can actually put these on while holding a coffee and a briefcase. No hands needed. Legit Materials: The calf leather feels premium and smells like the real deal. Versatility: Perfectly bridges the gap between a "car shoe" and a formal loafer. Comfort: The gel insert makes a noticeable difference for long-duration wear. The Cons: Sizing Inconsistency: They can run wide, leading to some "heel slip" if you don't get the perfect fit. Break-in Period: The heel is stiff by design (to allow for the slip-on feature), so expect a day or two of minor stiffness. Price Point: They aren't cheap, though often on sale. Value for Money Are they worth it? If you’re comparing them to high-end Italian brands that cost $500, these are an absolute steal. They look 90% as good for a fraction of the price. However, if you're used to $60 mall shoes, the jump to $150+ might feel steep until you realize you’re paying for the convenience of never having to touch your shoes to put them on. For a daily driver in a professional setting, the value is definitely there.

Step In Look Good
Size: 11.5, Color: Cognac Napa Leather
I am wearing these shoes as I write this review, and they look and feel great. I have a bit of a disability with drop foot on the right leg and bilateral neuropathy and have been wearing step in shoes for about 10 years. But the first company that introduced leather dress and casual shoes stopped making them and now only makes sport and casual shoes. So I have been searching for some that meet my need for shoes like this and this company has given me three pairs, so far. Easy to get into, comfortable to wear, and good looking. And they take polish very well, too. (Remember how to do that?). We may buy another pair or two in different styles as well.
