Having only recently binged almost every episode of The X-Files in a bout of nostalgia, I was very much primed for They Are Here, an alien abduction horror game from two-person developer Deklazon. I thought I'd had my fill of indie first-person horror games forcing me to flee monsters in the wilderness, but it turns out I'm still more than willing to be stalked by grey aliens through cornfields.
They Are Here plonks you in the shoes of a journalist investigating a UFO sighting, who is on their way to interview a farmer about the alleged alien encounter. Nobody knows more about UFOs than North American farmers and that's just a fact. When they get to the farm, everyone has left to look for the family's missing daughter, but not before leaving behind a bunch of slightly-too-convenient notes to fill in the narrative gaps. Aren't farmers considerate?
