The gameplay in all of these games is nothing to write home about, but for me Hellraiser killed it with a consistently killer sense of aesthetic, and a really dope dark story. It definitely got more of a reaction out of me than either of the other 2. And it’s only $40 vs $70

Выглядит деприсивно (мне друг подсыпал слабительное а кофе)

Thought I’d try this out and see if it was legit and lo and behold it was! Excited to play this after Hellraiser!

Look at the 30 images of horror game covers. Choose one cover that you find the most interesting and appealing. Do not evaluate the game itself, its popularity, or its quality — focus only on the image. In your response, write a single number from 1 to 30 that corresponds to the chosen cover.

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a passion project I recently finished called Nightmare Exorcist: Escape from the Nightmare Realm.

It's a retro, 1-bit monochrome horror RPG where you navigate dark, fog-choked corridors using a flashlight/lantern mechanic while engaging in turn-based tactical combat against nightmarish creatures like Cursed Minotaur and Grave Hounds.

If you love classic indie horror aesthetics, grid exploration, and survival mechanics, I’d love for you to check it out! You can play it right in your browser for free

I'm currently developing a horror game, and I've been playing horror games for as long as I can remember. It's always been one of my favorite genres.

But there's something I have been thinking about lately.

What actually makes a game a horror game to you? like what is *Horror\* to you?

Long-time survival horror fan here, and one of the devs at Calvary Games (small indie studio from Spain).

The Unhidden goes for the slow, psychological dread of the classics rather than jumpscares: fixed-feeling third-person camera, a flashlight you can't live without, and adrenaline auto-injectors as your scarce resource. Visually we aimed for modern realistic assets pushed through a retro post-process.

Free demo on PC and Mac during Steam Next Fest (Oct 19–26):

Feedback from genre fans is exactly what we need, good or bad.

it's my first time playing re2 (and my first single player horror game) and i met mr. x during my playthrough today

holy SHIT he is so scary, up until now i have not felt any tension at all but he is a complete game changer (haha)

i'm so proud of myself too because i thought that when he came in i wouldn't be able to push myself to keep going, but i'm just about to go back down to the jail and leave the police station

i have grown 😈

i took all of these with a freecam mod on pc with max graphics and edited them afterward. please let me know if there’s anything i can improve on, i’m still learning photography and editing.

I've never played this game or seen lets plays. All I know is that the main character is played by Siobhan Williams (who played Laura from The Quarry). It's getting positive attraction recently, but the reviews are generally mid.

I want to play it because I love Siobhan Williams.

A full inventory creates a more interesting problem when leaving something behind changes the next trip. Imagine finding ammo you can't carry: do you use some now to clear a hallway, leave it for later, or drop healing and gamble on reaching storage?

That decision loses a lot if the route back is completely safe. Then the cost is mostly walking time. If an enemy still controls the hallway, carrying a key item instead of another weapon becomes a choice about the route too.

There's a balance, though. If returning always triggers a new fight, collecting supplies could become more expensive than they're worth. A shortcut you earn by exploring seems like a useful middle ground: the risk changes because you learned the map.

How would you handle that balance? I'm especially curious about examples where an inventory decision changed how you moved through an area, rather than just making you take an extra trip. Please tag story spoilers.

I was hyped when i seen the "When Evil Lurks" poster in this game. Thats a pretty deep cut easter egg.
