Awesomesauce Horror Games I checked outPage 6

Confront your memories. No matter how bleak.
Adventure

A short game jam experience that is about childhood trauma and memories and a lot of sewer terrors. This moved me a lot, especially what's not being said communicates the backstory perfectly. 


First-person sci-fi survival-horror adventure
Adventure

Beautiful space horror with a lot to read but also incredible writing and some super neat visual details (the intro is quite cinematic). It’s roughly an hour for a very engaging story and some great scares, atmospheric sound design and smooth gameplay.

An Analog Horror experience.

Found Footage horror at its best. It's incredibly short (less than 10 minutes) but manages to tell a whole creepy story within that time frame.


Alone with the dead
Adventure

If the full game can deliver what this demo promises then this will be one for the ages. But even as a standalone, this demo is absolutely amazing. It looks stunning, the main premise (night shift in a mortuary) is fantastic and all the spooks are so lovingly crafted, it's like the developer really took time and care to scare the shit out of the players :D


Something feels wrong. Oh God, it's coming... find the tapes...
Interactive Fiction

This is a tie-in with an album by the developer of the same name and it is also a short story within the game's story and all this sounds weird but it really works and it shows how you can achieve a lot with a little if you set the right tone and add some details.


Hunt a werewolf.
Adventure

A super cute, very beautiful little quest in a small open world that is tied to a gaming group called Easy Allies which I had no idea and still I enjoyed this a lot. Very fun gameplay, short playing time and some squirrels (alas ...)!


Navigate Katie through a living nightmare when her move-in day on Halloween throws her into a centuries-old curse.
Visual Novel

I got the key from the devs since the premise of a slasher visual novel was really intriguing. This is super fun, campy and apparently can be very gory. I did not get to the gory parts because my wise decisions helped me through the night with only two people dead (apparently, that's a good thing???!!!). 

You just need to pee
Adventure

It's so simple, yet so well done when it comes to pacing and environmental structure. I loved it. 


Beware of the nanny...
Adventure

This game starts of innocently enough: two siblings face a weekend with their babysitter and take a trip to the nearby woods. But what they find there might haunt them forever. Absolutely outstanding story that honestly creeped me out big time. 

You participate in a turing test.
Adventure

I love questionnaire horror games and this one was really amazing in pacing and atmosphere. It also keeps you on your toes because who knows what the AI is really planning ...? 


A short fairytale-esque story about a smitten little spider and the woman it loved.
Visual Novel

Beautiful fairy tale with slightly spooky atmosphere. If you love old-fashioned fairy tales, romance and ghosts, you'll be head over heels in love with this visual novel. 


“One of the best Horror games I've played in years.” – TOMATO
Adventure

A great prologue for everyone who yearns for some old school Amnesia-gameplay. An abandoned island, a strange disease and a gun-wielding stranger make this puzzle horror a tense and intriguing intro for the main game. 


A visual novel about grief, pumpkin heads, and human decomposition. 100% medically accurate.
Visual Novel

One of the most disturbing horror games/visual novels I ever played, not for the faint of heart but also incredibly well told and tense as heck. 


A gothic horror tale - recruit ghosts to help you write your latest symphony

A short, musical summoning that is beautiful, haunting and introduces you to a world that the developer hopefully will expand upon. If you like gothic spooks, go for it. 


Play the VHS tape left by an employee of Building 71 as they delve into a mystery they never expected to unveil.
Adventure

A fantastic expedition into the gnarly secrets of an abandoned school full of cults, conflicts and murder. This is a great VHS-styled horror game that has awesome sound design and some unique ideas that make this a tense experience. 


Created for the HPS1 Horror Summer Jam.
Adventure

A somewhat unusual indie game experience that takes some great creative choices to spook you. It might not look as polished but it plays very well and knows how to use atmosphere and story-telling devices to creep you out. 


Lovecraftian Body Horror Loveletter
Adventure

A deliciously creepy, gross and uncanny horror story set in Yames' universe of religious horrors. As with all his games, The Well is superbly written and illustrated, you'll be at the edge of your seat and you will feel uncomfortable the whole way down to the bottom of the well. 


As a widower attempts to scale Scotland's second highest peak they are stalked by something sinister...
Interactive Fiction
Play in browser

This text adventure about grief and a Scottish cryptid has you fighting for survival in the mountains to fulfil a last wish. But something is following you ...


Somewhere between the world and the mind lie Deepdoors.
Survival

A short ride into a weird house and its even weirder basement. This has one of the best scares I had in a while and a great atmosphere. 


There's something wrong with the ocean.
Adventure

A short, disturbing underwater horror experience that is weird in all the best ways. I loved it. 


Survive! ...or don't!
Interactive Fiction
Play in browser

An absolutely adorable, funny choose-your-own-adventure amidst a zombie outbreak. Make your choices and save your characters - or doom them! This is a fantastic demo that's pretty smart about how your choices as one character will affect the fate of your other characters. 


The light will lead you home
Puzzle

A lovely ghost story about grief and family set on a lonely island. This stuck with me. 


Lights, Camera, Slaughter - Break a Leg!
Adventure

Another retro PSX-styled horror slasher that has some impressively disturbing environments. Makes you interested in the full game. 


Search for your cat in a mysterious pandemic
Adventure

A sweet, charming and sinister adventure has you looking for your runaway cat. What's behind its disappearance? And what are these weird symbols everywhere? 


And then I saw this ship. No signal, scan's returning nothing. I could have passed, but... I'm a curious one
Adventure

An incredibly polished, gorgeous sci fi horror adventure for everyone who loves Alien Isolation but doesn't want to fight androids. Honestly, this is impressive on all accounts. 


A journey into an abandoned facility nestled deep within a mountain.
Adventure

An incredibly well-made horror experience in the veins of old-school Amnesia type horror as you explore an underground facility deep in the mountains. Subtle chills, great scares and a neat story.


Play in browser

Incredibly short but therefore also fun and visually charming spooky experience.


A game about a childhood fear

Just full of small little, creepy details that works a universal childhood fear into a neat horror game.
