Little Nightmares 2 is a fantastic follow up to the first Little Nightmares, as well as being a prequel (no spoilers!). It's taken a while, and some replaying, to acknowledge that actually it's probably better than the original - more polished, a more confident atmosphere, and better developed baddies. In Little Nightmares 2 you play as Mono, a boy...
I can't believe I didn't add Old Gods Rising to this list ages ago, since it's a fabulously unsettling game that stuck both in the mind and the craw, and is one of a tiny handful of Lovecraftian games that doesn't become achingly unsubtle. You play as a historical consultant for the latest film by a maverick director, who is filming on location at ...
In terms of games that you can play in a group, as if you're sitting around scarfing popcorn and red laces and watching an actual horror film, it'd surely be hard to beat The Quarry. It's a specific field, but a surprisingly wide one, and The Quarry is the most recent entry. Play switches between a group of teens, each with their own hang ups and r...
A good horror story can teach you a thing or two, and Detention is not only a very good horror game, it's also a game set in a time and place I knew very little about before playing. The player characters are students in a school, and become trapped there after-hours - but there's more to worry about than the ghosts and ghouls stalking the corridor...
Observer sounded dreadful when I first heard about it - dreadful in all the wrong ways. I hadn't particularly enjoyed the developer's previous release, art-horror walking sim Layers Of Fear, and initial press releases spoke of delving into unstable minds. Here, I thought, is a game that will lean heavily on tropes about the criminally insane and cl...
Michael Lutz's short Twine game has the pacing and logic of a nightmare. The choices that you make cause the story to be delivered piecemeal, each morsel adding to the sense of wrongness that comes to a head in a sequence that pushes the Twine medium to its limits. How much can be done with text, a few tricks of layout and design, and a simple soun...
The idea that electric voice phenomena - the voices of spirits captured in recordings - is a powerful one because the possibility of fragmented communication from beyond is both reassuring and terrifying. Reassuring to think that some semblance of the self still exists and might make the effort to leave messages for those left behind; terrifying to...
How to stop an old god from entering our world through the lighthouse in your home town? You have a limited amount of time before the ritual is complete, and to get to the top of the tower you need to collect five keys by solving supernatural cases around town. Much of World Of Horror is deliberately obscure, so you learn by iterating through multi...
Big budget horror rarely works well. The temptation to show the money on the screen works against the mystery and murkiness necessary for so much that frightens us. The original Dead Space threw everything at the screen - guts, extra limbs, hallucinations, cult religions, erratic sci-fi - and was content to see at least some of it stick. It was at ...
