What horror games are you playing this October?

Nothing really planned for the moment. I watched Dead Space Remake and Signalis and both are amazing game, you will have great time..:)

Hope to grab Silent Hill f from AWA vaults this month xD

Alan Wake 2 is the most likely candidate.

Looks at backlog of abandoned games probably nothing. But i can safely recommend SOMA, one of the greatest walking sims out there with amazing story and very unsettling atsmosphere.

RE2 remake currently. I might move straight on to RE3 or play Evil Within.

i started Scorn

Does Flathead count? Haven't played it yet but it looked like a horror game, so gonna have to finally play that this month.

I wake up everyday day.
I check the news.
And the horrors begin.

The game of life.

Just won Tormented Souls two days ago and was really looking forward playing it.
Unfortunately, despite the old school fixed cameras that I like and the nice level design, the presentation of the story and the gameplay just feel bad and the save points are spread so far away that it takes all the fun away for me :(

I started by playing Carrion, a nice indie metroidvania. Also planned to try Edengate, but not sure if they do count as classic horror games!

I honestly can’t play horror games because I just get too scared or anxious, even though I’m already 25. Probably because the movie (and later the game) of The Mummy scared me as a kid, lol. The only ‘horror’ I’ll touch this Halloween is some 2D dark atmospheric stuff like Oknytt. I’d play or watch horror games with someone else, but everyone I know is busy - and I don’t know that many people to begin with.

SOMA! As Mag1 intended.

I'm currently playing Cold Fear. I intend to play Grim Fandango, Layers of Fear 2, and F.E.A.R. 2 next.

I usually love horror games, but really struggle playing titles like Amnesia where you need to hide and can't defend yourself... I just get so, so stressed out, I oftentimes can't complete the game.

That said, I've been playing Chernobylite and I think I will uninstall it. I love the eerie vibe, but I'm getting annoyed with the bugs/glitches and frankly, I felt very much bored during my last gaming session. I was never truly into the story anyway, not sure why... it just felt rather meh to me.

After a quick look at my backlog, I'm gonna try RATSHAKER.

From your list, I'd pick SOMA if I were you. I've enjoyed that one tremendously, it might be one of the best games I've played

None?

Dead Island 2

I just won In Nightmare and that's how scary as it's going to get for me in October. I have too much anxiety from real life to really enjoy most of the gorefest that comes in every form these days. If I want horror, I just watch the news.

For me it instead of Spooktober, it's gonna be rather Byteoberfest as most gonna be sci-fi related: Cyberpunk 2077, Ghostrunner, Talos Principle, Cyber Hook. However got one horror planned as well: The Coma 2.

a lot of anomaly games

watching the downfall of western civilization is all the horror i need.
just playing games to keep me sane

My line up for the coming time (in alphabetic order);
-Alien: Rogue Incursion VR
-Blair Witch VR
-Don't Knock Twice (VR)
-Layers of Fear VR

And maybe some zombie shooters line Saints and Sinners or Propagation.

Cause yeah, after playing a lot on flatscreen, why not make it worse.

I have Outlast 2 and Resident Evil 4 in my PoP picks and I just finished Outlast 1!
Might play / revisit some of the following I've marked:
Amnesia (any of the first two)
Condemned: Criminal Origins
The Crooked Man
Cry of Fear
Lost in Vivo
Spirit Hunter: Death Mark

Also need desperately to get back to, as well as 100% Rodland of Pipes, such a fun one!

In terms of media, I'll definitely re-watch my all time favorite, Hereditary, and maybe The Thing or some other horror movie I haven't watched.
Let me know what you think! Any other recommendations based on these is appreciated, as well:)

I heard SOMA was great, but I'd have to do Amnesia before it, just for publishing chronology's sake ;D

These days, you can just turn on the news, that's more scary than any horror game.

I saved the Silent Hill 2 remake for this month. Looking forward to play it after finishing Vampyr.

I think I'll start with the ones already in my library:
Among the Sleep
The Excavation of Hob's Barrow
Silver Chains
Through the Woods
Tormented Souls

And I'll see how much time I have left :D
