Blanket Heavy With Nightmares is a free VR experience. It worked on my HTC Vive and Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok, was understandable. It has four experiences you can choose from by gazing at hotspots on a blanket in the lobby. Presents different fears in a VR format. Some have jumpscares, some have impending doom feelings. Has Finnish and English instructions and a language switch. Try it, if you like being scared.4 found this helpful

Игра 'Blanket Heavy With Nightmares' – это короткое, но впечатляющее путешествие в мир кошмаров и личных трагедий. Визуальный стиль, выполненный в пиксель-арте, создает гнетущую атмосферу, которая гармонично сочетается с мрачным сюжетом. Механика взаимодействия с миром проста и интуитивна, позволяя сосредоточиться на повествовании и внутреннем состоянии главного героя. Игра умело использует элементы хоррора, не полагаясь на дешевые скримеры, а погружая игрока в состояние тревоги и дискомфорта. Исследование дома и взаимодействие с воспоминаниями персонажа раскрывает сложную историю потери и вины. Несмотря на свою короткую продолжительность, игра оставляет сильное эмоциональное послевкусие. Она заставляет задуматься о тяжести прошлого и его влиянии на настоящее. 'Blanket Heavy With Nightmares' – это пример того, как небольшая инди-игра может рассказать глубокую и трогательную историю. Рекомендуется всем, кто не боится заглянуть в темные уголки человеческой души.
The mirror one was amazing, combined with the sound designed did spook me.
A Finnish art installation and collection of 5 short VR-experiences, and in all of them you're a spectator of someone's personal nightmare, re-imagined in VR. A few are on the more surreal side, and others deals with very classical fears such as falling and drowning. This together with the absence of graphical content makes it suitable for a bit younger audience as well. There's elements of surprise but it never really gets too scary. You navigate the main menu with gaze control, making it really comfortable as no controllers are needed. You can just put it on, sit back, and (try to) relax. Also, it is free!
