Horror Collection

The horror game genre is dedicated to all gamers who love to be thrilled and scared. Unlike the movies, games offer you unremarkable participation in the center of the action. The diversity makes this genre stand out of gameplay types - you will find options from point-and-click to platform games and shooters.

As the effect of constant growth of the ideas for horror games, nowadays, we have a lot of titles, which we can divide into sub-genres. One of the most common categories of horror games is survival horror, where the player fully needs to focus on not letting his character die. Amnesia: The Dark Descent is one of the most recognizable titles when it comes to survival horrors - it’s a chilling adventure. In this category, we will also find games like Manhunt or DreadOut.

Action horrors contain more elements of shooting games. Frequently we can experience this type of fun in the surrounding of the zombie apocalypse, like in Dead Island or Resident Evil: Revelations 2. The second one is a remarkable example, as this series is considered one of the pioneers of horror games. Large amounts of smashed heads, gushing blood and the sounds of hungry monsters are a must-have here.

Games described as psychological horrors are slightly different from the above types - developers, instead of forcing the player to react quickly, give him the time to discover all the scary elements and events. But don’t underestimate them - games like Layers of Fear or The Medium can give you more goosebumps than many action-based productions.

We cannot forget about the characteristic system of terrifying the players - jump scares. We can expect the presence of them as elements of other genres, but there are some titles, where jump scares are the main aim of the gameplay. As this form of thrilling may generate funny reactions from the players, games like Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 are one of the favorites when it comes to streaming. This game is an honestly chilling adventure containing the presence of demonic animatronics.
