Feel like getting truly scared? We\u2019ve collected the most terrifying\u00a0games that only the bravest can play. Don\u2019t agree with the order of the top 20? <\/span>Vote to change the order to suit your tastes!<\/b><\/p>\n Most of these games can be easily found nowadays. We’ve avoided typical choices like Resident Evil or Five Nights at Freddy’s.<\/p>\n Silent Hill 2 is more psychologically scary than the other games on this list. The story never mentions this directly, but the characters, including the protagonist, are escaping their mistakes or trauma instead of confronting them. As a result, the city of Silent Hill becomes more ominous and sinister until the fantastic end. <\/span><\/p>\n The classic that gave rise to all modern horror games. Amnesia sets aside action, betting on stealth instead. While you explore the passageways of a sinister castle, you\u2019ll encounter abominations hunting you down. You can\u2019t finish them off, so you have to hide or manage your light sources to avoid becoming devoured in the darkness.<\/span><\/p>\n Isolation not only is the best game in the Alien saga but also boasts of one of the smartest and most terrifying enemies in the genre. During the course of this adventure, the alien adjusts to the structure and the ins and outs of Sevastopol. What once worked for you suddenly becomes your last resort unless you want to die.<\/span><\/p>\n The key to Outlast is leaving you completely unprotected when facing dangers hidden in the insane asylum. You have to hide under beds or in closets while you look for keys or clues to advance. Your only light source, your camera, adds tension thanks to a battery that threatens to run out at every step.<\/span><\/p>\n Unlike other monsters, the creatures of Dead Space don\u2019t die with a bullet to the head. What\u2019s more, sometimes they don\u2019t have a head where they should. Dead Space\u2019s \u00a8strategic dismembering\u00a8 system guarantees that no encounter will be the same as another\u2026 and the designs of the monsters are the stuff of nightmares. <\/span><\/p>\n The \u00a8brilliance\u00a8 of Project Zero 2 is that it forces you to face your fears. The only way to defeat the game\u2019s ghosts is to photograph them, the closer they are when the photo is taken, the more pain you cause. Can you handle it all?<\/span><\/p>\n Dead Space 2 is \u00a8bigger and better\u00a8 than the first release. There are more frights, stories and places. The only downside is that, while Dead Space was a personal and organic adventure, its sequel seems like an amusement park: impressive but somewhat artificial. <\/span><\/p>\n One of the most undeservedly forgotten installments of the saga. Shattered Memories is more than a remake of the first release. For starters, it personalizes your nightmare with the appearance of a mysterious therapist. On the other hand, it takes away all kinds of weapons to give you only one option when facing danger: to run.<\/span><\/p>\n The Evil Within is like an exhibition of all horror game cliches in the third person. The result should be chaotic but it\u2019s actually an adventure with an admirable rhythm that doesn\u2019t stop coming up with new ideas and enemies so you never feel safe. <\/span><\/p>\n Remember P.T., the demo teaser of the canceled Silent Hills installment? Layers of Fear is everything that it could have been. You\u2019ll discover a complex and strange story where you\u2019ll be afraid to do anything, whether opening a door or turning a corner. You\u2019ll never know when a fright is coming!<\/span><\/p>\n Condemned is terrifying from beginning to end because you don\u2019t face off monsters but rather people who have gone mad. Although there are firearms, most fighting involves violent and difficult duels with hand-to-hand combat. Here you can\u2019t kill bad guys from afar!<\/span><\/p>\n A first-person horror game where you control a 2-year-old child. Horror has never been addressed from such an affectionate and childlike point of view. You\u2019re not a hero. You don\u2019t have thousands of weapons. You\u2019re only a vulnerable and scared child in a world that wasn\u2019t made for you. <\/span><\/p>\n A brilliant resurrection of the Resident Evil saga that sets aside the intense showing off of previous installments to focus on\u00a0a house with numerous problems. The first part is pure horror while the second part tends towards more traditional action.<\/span><\/p>\n The best game inspired by the literary work of H.P. Lovecraft. You\u2019ll take on a private detective who must investigate the secrets hidden by a strange fishing village. Prepare yourself for cosmic horrors, nocturnal pursuits and an original system of madness that will infect you if you don\u2019t run away from evil in time.<\/span><\/p>\n If you like creepypastas, surely you\u2019re familiar with the SCP Foundation stories. Containment Beach compiles some of the best horrors of these stories in a free horror game where you never know what kind of creature will shock you next.<\/span><\/p>\n Do the depths of the sea scare you? Beware of SOMA! It\u2019s a science fiction adventure that takes place in a complex under the sea where everything that could go wrong gets WORSE. It\u2019s a spiritual successor to Amnesia that scares and shocks you, of course, but it\u2019s the storyline that will captivate you the most.<\/span><\/p>\n Alan Wake spirals into action as the hours pass, but its story (a man who predicts his own decline into madness) keeps you going even in repetitive moments. Its literal use of lights and shadows is impeccable.<\/span><\/p>\n Sylvio is a little-known horror game that encourages us to investigate electronic voice phenomenon (the voices of the dead, for example). Its combination of disturbing sounds and eerie shadows makes it a terrifying adventure that deserves to be in your collection.<\/span><\/p>\n The last release of the fortune hunters saga in Chernobyl is the best of them all. While at first glance it seems like a pseudo-military shooting game, Call of Pripyat includes mutants and aberrations awaiting you at night or in abandoned buildings.<\/span><\/p>\n Undying traumatized many gamers in its day and continues to traumatize more thanks to its setting and soundtrack. Your mission is to penetrate a cursed mansion and face the four children of its owner who have become possessed. This is a very long adventure that never has a dull moment.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BY DANIEL CACERES Feel like getting truly scared?
