Horror was one of those things that scared me as a little kid that I wanted to watch it so I got over my fear then watched so much I became desensitized. Had a period when I was watching one a day before going to bed.
But, then horror games brought it back with me being the reason for consequences, but now I’m desensitized to that too. Next phase will be VR if I ever get around to it to get back the fear. That looks terrifying as hell.
It’s more of an interactive movie, but it is actually a really good horror movie, with all sorts of branching paths. You don’t even have to actually play the game part; you can set up “movie mode” and see the best outcomes, the worst outcomes, or set variables that control the characters and explore various outcomes. I don’t normally like these kinds of games (since I prefer agency over story telling), but this is one I can never not recommend.

That’s the recommendation I needed to decide to get this months humble bundle.
