Apex Predator $ 3.99
On Turris, an army of the Imperium wages interminable war against the forces of Chaos. Hunger gnaws at the brave defenders as they fortify themselves in the world’s battle-scarred cities, and none have been left unscathed by the horrors they have seen. For Imperial Knight pilot Sethana, the greatest terror is those of her own kind who have fallen under the sway of the Dark Gods. Chaos Knights stalk the darkness, and only by facing them head-on can Sethana master her fear. But when facing those who have piloted their Knights since the Imperium was young, new tactics will be required…

Castle of Blood From: $ 16.99
Guests are arriving at the ancient castle of Mhurghast, summoned by the reclusive Count von Koeterberg. They expect a grand feast, and something more… The ambitious Baron expects to inherit the Count’s wealth; the wife of a broken swordsmith hopes to revisit happier times; the fallen priest prays for a chance of recovering his faith. Seven families, each with their own dark secrets. Each with their own hidden agenda. Each marked for revenge. Doomed to discover the depths of horror and despair, it is not a night of revelry that awaits them, but a night of unprecedented terror. Son will turn against father and daughter against mother, as daemonic evil descends upon Mhurghast.
Written by C L Werner. Approx running time 7hours 1 minute. Naratted by Claire Wyatt
The Watcher in the Rain From: $ 13.99
In the far reaches of Imperial space, a ferocious warp storm approaches an Administratum world, cutting off the entire planet from the rest of the Imperium. As their towering grey spires are punished by endless rain, countless administrators, tithe-masters, and book-keepers are forced to evacuate. Among them is Greta, a lowly data-drone with a terrible secret, wanted for questioning by the sadistic Imperial interrogator Stefan Crucius. As disaster strikes and the pair are left stranded in the depths of the drowning city, captor and captive must co-operate to stand any chance of escaping. But a mysterious presence stalks them through the abandoned, flooded towers, a dread entity each must confront but which neither dare acknowledge, a Watcher in the Rain.
Written by Alec Worley. Running time 74 minutes. Performed by Matthew Hunt, Deeivya Meir, Melvin Rawlinson & Richard Reed
