The next game is Silent Hill. This
game is quite a creepy one. It is based on a story of a man whose child is lost after a car accident. He gets stuck on in a ghost town that is in perpetual fog. Not only that but if you know anything about the movie The Mist the environment is just like that. Foggy and filled with random monstrous enemies that will come to eat you. All you have is the things you find and a gun a cop gives you to find your daughter. I believe this game goes through the husband’s guilt of loss and trauma. He is constantly shown to a random woman (supposedly his wife?) that makes him question things over and over. At the same time he is trying to find his daughter. I recommend this as it is a classic horror game that was revolutionary for its animations and immense pressure on your feelings. Throughout my gameplay it was a rollercoaster of feeling bad for the dad and feeling scared
completely.
Until Dawn. I’d say one of the most
controlling game of 2015. A game surrounded on the
idea that you controlled the story’s outcome. Whether
you kill off everyone, some, or none the endings are satisfactory to you since you made the decisions. The story is in short about a friend group going to a cabin and 2 sisters fall off a mountain after being chased from a monster called a Wendigo. Essentially a Wendigo is a demon that possesses people who go cannibalistic. As said before the sisters fall off and one survives and eats the other and becomes a Wendigo. The group goes back after a year and go through a whole campaign of running and surviving against the Wendigos and Josh. Josh is the brother of the sisters and
he mainly wants to get revenge on the group as he
blamed them for killing his sisters. In the end you can
save everyone, kill everyone, or kill some people.
However no matter what Josh will die and the
Wendigos will scare you.
