I am fascinated by games with 2D art that still manage to give you a good scare. I guess what I find interesting is if a game can manage to translate the scares and audio design which we know from 3D environments and movies. I have never really played any though. I would love to hear some suggestions, especially with Halloween coming soon!
Oxenfree messed me up when I played it a few years ago. It’s got this super eerie vibe to it that really ratchets up the tension and sense of dread.
A game I played recently might do the job too, it’s called Signalis. It plays a bit like a 2D Resident Evil game, but with a slightly more interesting story.
Signalis is my vote.
Even though it’s technically 2.5D I’d also recommend Inside.
I liked juppie psycho, it’s kinda scary but the story is great. Also I wanted to start The Coma 2 Vicious Sisters, it’s supposed to be good 2d Horror. Finally I played some lone Survivor a long time ago. That one was actually too scary for me. I remember that the sound atmosphere was great.
Deadwood
Is there a reason Limbo is being talked about these days? My 10 year old nephew was going on about it at the weekend. Did some streamer play it recently?
