Quality horror gaming content and discussion.

Rules:
Rule 1: Observe Reddiquette
Rule 2: Submissions must be "horror-gaming" themed, not just horror.
Rule 3: Please DO NOT post LET'S PLAY, WALKTHROUGH, COMPILATION or REACTION videos. These can be posted in r/horrorgamevideos. Some exceptions may be made if it is an obscure game that has not been posted before, or it offers a mature analysis of a game, but ask first!

There's lots of horror games that are scary because they make you jump or they have a really creepy design in them. However, I've been thinking of horror games that really tap into a niche fear we as a player may have and so shakes us to the core.
Although it's not a 100% horror, for me the Prey remake does enough to be considered one. I absolutely hated the Telepath monster, especially when they controlled people. The concept of completely losing control of your faculties yet being completely aware that you have done so is terrifying, and the begging the people made really shook me up.
What are some games that did the same to you? I look forward to hearing about them!
The game is "Them and Us". If you got the time please let me know your opinions on the game and video! Feedback is really important. Also sorry for the 3 repost in a handful of minutes but for some reason it gets flagged for spoilers lol
Can be anything really just as long as its multiplayer and as long as its a horror. Preferably a kind of co-op
Hello!
I recently did a review for Alien: Isolation as part of my October horror-themed series for my site.
It is intended to be a (mostly) spoiler-free review, so no real details of events outside of opening scenes. All screenshots are also from the first handful of missions. If you plan on playing the game, you don't have to worry about anything noteworthy that isn't already in promotional material.

I'm looking for antholgoies that are similar to the DreadX Collections and Notebook Entries. Being so short they gave the developers a lot of freedom for more unique designs which I really enjoyed.
Anybody remember Kuon?! I played it forever ago (obviously since it's 20 yrs old) and absolutely loved it. I love the historical East Asian setting and the way that it plays, the story, etc. I've tried finding it again, but it's so expensive (should've kept mine).
Are there any other games that are similar to that either PC or PS5? I don't play horror usually but the other games I love are rpg fantasy, open world, super long. If it's too challenging (like Dark Souls hard), I will get frustrated and quit. Puzzles are fine though.
I played RE7 about a year after launch at the behest of a friend. It has gone on to be one of my top 5 games of all time, I've replayed it like 3-4 times now. I have played every RE game released since, loved them, and now The Silent Hill 2 Remake might actually be better.
This comes after decades of me failing to get into the genre because of janky controls and an over-emphasis on action gameplay.
This also is coinciding with what I consider a new golden age of horror films, easily the best since the 80's.
Its a really, REALLY good time to be a fan of scary things and I hope everyone is having a great time.
Cheers, happy spooky season ☠️
What are your thoughts on the game years later
Does it deserve a remaster/new game?
I've been looking for demos the past two days but I found a lot of them, which ones are the best to play?
I'm currently on the polishing stages of my game dev journey for my medieval horror game - interstice. I would like to share some screenshots of some gameplay scenes. I hope to get it polished by the end of this month.
I'll be releasing a trailer very soon. I might need testers for some feedback.
Please have a look https://hvck.itch.io/interstice and let me know what you think.
thank you all.
I know a lot like that game but wondering if anyone feels the same as I rarely see neutral or bad reviews
I didn't find the game scary or captivating this made me not want to keep playing
Id be nice if you didn't down vote my new account due to legitimate curiosity and my personal opinion I didn't say the game was bad 👀
I'm thinking of making a survival horror game and I want to gather some opinions on what are the best and worst features of this kind of game. What would you like to see more of? What would you like to see less of, or not see at all?
Ciao fellow horror fans!
I'm working on some ideas for my first ever indie horror game and would love to get some thoughts from the community
Here's a quick form if you want to check them out

Thanks for helping me make something truly unsettling!
I’m on PS4 and have played almost all of the popular titles that are discounted right now, but I noticed there’s a ton of indy horror games on sale at the moment, most of which I know very little about. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I prefer first person games, 3rd is alright too. I really like psychological/paranormal stuff rather than action horror/zombies or whatever. The scarier the better for sure!
I'm a huge fan of SH series, and was waiting for this remake and for all the new games of the franchise like crazy!!! The graphics of SH2 remake were remarkable imo, and I loved every part of it except for the "doge" part which was kinda clunky on PS5! Other than that I was so excited to play it, and so nostalgia driven that my friends told me that I was biased...they didn't like it that much (they haven't played the original game tho). They said that the controls and gameplay were not good and it make it kinda unplayable and boring in some parts...I can't see that at all!
What did u guys think? Am I that biased?!
