Review Stephen King's F13 / Blue Byte Software Ltd:Stephen King's F13 decks out your computer with a horror aesthetic, offering "deathtop" images, "screamsavers" and a trio of mini-games. The capper is a beautifully presented novella, Everything's Eventual, a story that brings King's usual theme into a high-tech context. The program is largely disappointing. It has been argued that the most critical element of horror media is sound, and F13 does have a cornucopia of chilling and ominous noises. However, everything else is carefully honed to a PG level of taste-rather than being scary, or even creepy, most aspects of F13 fall into the category of horror camp. Two of the three mini-games are simple twitch games. In Bug Splat, you flatten insects messily before they can overwhelm your screen; in Whack-A-Zombie, you dispatch the undead with a shovel. The third game, No Swimming, lets you feed various animals to a school of piranha. The games are hilarious, especially Whack-A-Zombie, but they are not very challenging and definitely not fear-inspiring. As for the novella, while its interface is gorgeous, this too is weak when compared to Stephen King's other work. [+]
It has a simplistic moral, a predictable ending and offers little in the way of edge. Still, hard-core King fans who want a complete collection may enjoy F13, as will younger horror aficionados who cut their teeth on the watered-down terrors of R. L. Stine. For everyone else, if you want truly scary wallpaper and other trappings for your PC, you will probably have to look elsewhere. -Alyx Dellamonica.
