As a child of the ‘90s, I still retain a nostalgia for the days of MS-DOS. My time with Microsoft’s old, text-based operating system was mostly spent using basic file-browsing functionality or booting up classic PC games such as Doom and Theme Park, but the scroll of letters that resulted from even the simplest of actions still made me feel a bit like a hacker. New horror game Split, from the creator of the brilliant Buckshot Roulette, embraces that feeling in a dark tale of infiltration and command lines. It’s out now, will cost you just $3, and is going even cheaper for launch if you're fast.
