This bright and fresh salad salad is a celebration of spring greens! The roasted asparagus pairs beautifully with peppery arugula, lemon, and fresh mint. Asparagus started showing up at the market in mid-April but should be in abundance throughout the month of May.

Key Strengths of Horror Games
Strong atmosphere
Sound effects, lighting, environments, and unexpected events work together to create suspense. Even simple browser graphics can become effective when the game uses atmosphere well.
Easy to start
Many online horror games can be played directly in a browser. You can try a game without spending time installing a large application or learning complicated systems first.
Different types of fear
Not every horror game depends on jump scares. Some create fear through exploration, isolation, puzzles, limited resources, or the feeling that something is following you.
High replay value
Some games change enemy behavior, locations, objectives, or events between attempts. This encourages players to return and discover things they missed during the first playthrough.
