About Bite-Sized Scares

Bite-Sized Scares

Is a completely free, small collection of short and sweet, bite sized indie horror games created and curated by Aaron Wise & D. Zenith. The games are playable through a fun and interactive launcher, with each game featuring their own unique setting, narrative, and gameplay mechanics.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEATURED IN THIS COLLECTION:

Statuam

  • Your friends dared you to enter the mysterious maze, dubbed 'Domum Statuae'. Stories of a demonic statue that stalks its prey throughout the maze are all that runs though your mind, but you aren't one to chicken out. Get in, get out. How hard can it be?

The Bewdley Incident

  • A short game of "Guess Who" where a Skinwalker has taken over the small town where you live. Assess the situation, look for the signs, and execute the Skinwalker before it's too late! Randomly selects a new Skinwalker with each playthrough with 4 endings to find.

A Date to Remember

  • Sometimes it's best to let sleeping corpses lie. You take the role of a young, single woman, attempting to find love in these trying times. The person you've taken an interest in, invites you to dinner at his beloved grandmother's house. Though as with all dates, people don't show their true colors right away.

The Nest

  • Something lives down inside the darkest part of the mines. With the creature on the prowl, you must avoid detection, find resources to build a makeshift bridge & escape. Be careful, though. It's not the only thing down there.

Booi's Spooky Vacation

  • Booi, the ghost, decided to explore the sea during it's vacation, but an unfortunate event happens and the path towards new waters is blocked by a big ghost ship. Now Booi will need the help of the local folks to discover the dark secrets behind the ghost ship in order to get inside it and release all the tripulation being held by an evil entity! Booi's Spooky Vacation is a point and click game.

It's Outside

  • Can you survive the night? Step into the eerie sounds of rain & silence, where something sinister lurks just beyond the windows. Inspired by Five Nights at Freddy's, this tense, atmospheric horror game challenges you to keep a terrifying entity at bay, armed with nothing but your wits, your ears, and a powerful photo flash.

Garage

  • A short and sweet psychological horror game which takes place in the mind of a troubled husband. He goes about his business as usual, however; things don't end particularly well for him. Do you have what it takes to assist our hero and release him from his torment?

PROCESS_HIDE

  • A rogue virus has been corrupting and taking over the network. You take the role of an antivirus stealth-unit. You must make your way to the core of the network to release more antivirus units to combat the virus. Sneak your way through 3 distinct levels and avoid detection at all costs!

Kakashi

  • Based on the Japanese folklore, 'Kakashi'; torments a local farmer. With missing people on the rise, and strange dreams that haunt you as the week progresses. Can you solve the mystery behind the missing persons and survive these strange occurances?

Bite-Sized Scares is a fun little horror collection that I liked because it gives me several completely different experiences instead of trying to stretch one small idea into a full game. The collection uses its own launcher to bring together short indie horror games, with each one having its own setting, story and style of gameplay. I think that format works really well for short horror because I can finish one frightening idea and immediately move on to something completely different. One of the biggest strengths is the variety. The collection includes different types of horror, from exploring a mysterious maze to dealing with a creature hiding among the residents of a small town. Some entries focus more on exploration and atmosphere, while others use puzzles or more direct interaction. I enjoyed not knowing exactly what kind of experience I was going to get when starting another entry. I also like that the games are deliberately short. Horror can lose some of its impact when an idea is repeated for too long, so these compact experiences can get to the point and leave before the atmosphere becomes stale. I found the short format especially effective when a particular game had o…

Well worth checking out this selection of short horror experiences. Their quality and styles vary from game to game, which means you'll probably find something here that is just what you're looking for. If of course what you are looking for is a simple short bit sized scare! My favourite was Kakashi, but I also loved The Bewdley Incident, Garage, and A Date to Remember.
