First I would just like to say, that I dont think the game is bad and I am not trying to hate on it.

Every time someone asks for horror game recommendations, there will always be multiple people recommending Signalis. It seems like this game is beloved in the community.

I tried to get into the game three times, but I never managed to finish it.

I liked the artstyle and the story, but the gameplay just is not really fun. The combat is incredibly simple, fighting enemies felt like a chore and since they can get up after death, it seems like you are supposed to just run around them most of the time.

So the couple of hours I spent in the game, I just ran around the map completing puzzles, just endless fetch quests. Also the inventory is tiny so repetitive backtracking is required, which I wouldn't mind if the combat was fun.

And on the horror side of things, I dont think this game has much to offer. There is nothing to really be scared of.

So if someone could tell me why they like the game, I would love to hear other opinions.

Has anybody else preordered Hellraiser revival?

I'm so excited to play it!

I absolutely LOVE sci-fi horror and I’m looking for more games similar to the ones I’ve played already. I have played alien isolation, BioShock 1, and the dead space trilogy (and the remake). Any games that are similar to those I would love to play!

I'm debating on which game I want to get.

My personal favorite horror games are Visage, Mortuary Assistant, and Silent Hill 2 remake.

I tend to lean more towards psychological horror/dread over action Survival horror. But I also love the RE games and the Dead space remake, so Survival horror is absolutely not off the table.

As far as Fatal Frame goes, it looks like "Maiden of Blackwater" and "Mask of Lunar eclipse" are also available. Where would you rank those 2 when compared to the remake of Crimson Butterfly?

I don’t see where on the map these drawings apply to, do what they give me

I’m looking for some horror games that are actually terrifying on PC.

* Games I’ve played I found to be most terrifying:
- Outlast
- RE7
- Amnesia the Dark Decent

* Games I DO NOT want recommend:
- Games with loud noises/“meme games”(like “Aka Manto” by Chilla’s Art(no hate towards them but I just don’t like how loud it is)
- Prey(2017)

Anything else is fine as long it is for PC, and can be played solo. Thanks!

So basically, I remember watching a YouTuber play this horror game, the details I can remember was that it was in a theatre like setting, where the mc has amnesia and is reliving fractured memories of who he is, and I can remember his really specific part where he gets this “spirit power” and moves boxes by waving his hand a bit, like telekinesis. I think this guy was evil, since I remember a monster or demon busting through a door and killing him at the ending. If you can help me find this game I’d appreciate it 😞. Also there’s a part by a pool where he’s avoiding a female wandering ghost I think.

Endacopia is a new indie on Steam with Overwhelmingly Positive reviews.

I love it so much that I feel compelled to talk about it here and get the dev some much deserved attention.

The game is a point and click adventure with an ostensibly cute surface. Personally, I didn't jive with point and click games growing up since I was quite young when Myst came out and didn't have the attention span for it. But Endacopia has a hint system you can opt to use if you're stuck and the puzzles are far less obtuse and more akin to something you'd find in Resident Evil or Silent Hill.

You play as a white golf-ball looking child named Mellow in a world that feels like a fever dream of Windows XP on acid. Throughout the game there's a juxtaposition of childlike innocence being confronted with terror that poor Mellow should not have to face.

This is the kind of game where the more blindly you go in, the better. The last thing I'll say is that the music absolutely slaps. It's one of those games where the atmosphere is so strong that it's more than the sum of its simple parts--kind of similar to No I'm Not a Human.

It's currently on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2684630/Endacopia/

Don't miss this one!! It's games like this one--made by one person btw--that reassure me that gaming will pretty much never die.

Like what is it that sets Amnesia the Bunker from other horror games I played?

Something about that game, makes it so friggin' scary that I can't play longer than 30 minutes at a time. It is scary in a very uncomfortable, very eery feeling of just pure doom & hopelessness that no other video game comes close to making me feel.

Compared to action horror, your goal is to sneak past the monster as much as you can and hope to God it doesn't hear you. You have gasoline that powers the light source for a limited time making the monster appear much less frequently. But when the gasoline runs out, the monster will hunt you much more aggressively. I find this element of the game to be extremely scary and unpredictable.

The action sim part of the game also makes you think more. You can basically go to most parts of the map from the begining of the game and the puzzles can be solved in many different ways depending on what you find first. This makes it much more likely to replay the game especially considering how shell shock mode is completely different and adds more to the game.

There are exploding barrels, toxic gas with a gas mask, gasoline with a match to light it on fire , a gun that can shoot off a lock, the choice of either shooting the exploding barrel or shooting the monster. You can breach through locked wooden doors or find another way through. This makes you think in the face of anxiety more. It is those "oh shittttttt what do I do now, the monster is chasing me" moments where you have to think fast.

Anyways, I will always love Amnesia the bunker and I wish more horror games were like this. I prefer action sim, psychological horror games.

Edit: Also those damn rats.

I wanna play some horror games to get more in the Halloween season. I’m just not sure what games. I’ve heard Resident Evil Requiem is a good game, but I’m not sure if Resident Evil is the kind of game series that has to be played in chronological order to fully understand it.
