Layers of Fear (2016) (2016)

I have a fear now of doors closing behind me

This is Art. It is not a survival-horror game -- it is a novel that you experience, the kind that you can't put down. Other games within this genre often feel like cheap hometown haunted houses, but the level of thoughtful design within Layers of Fear feels like a high-quality Disney ride (better, actually). Money well spent.

[h1]End the Horrors, One Brush Stroke at a time...[/h1] [h3]Once and for all??[/h3] Layers of Fear (2016) is a great game, as long as you know to go into it expecting a cinematic, story rich, primarily walking sim experience. If you're looking for scripted scares, deep psychological themes and demonic visuals you're in the right place. If you're looking for action, fast paced gameplay or combat you should consider another title. *This game also is highly recommended to play multiple times to get the full experience, but isnt necessary. Especially just for a fun fall pick me up horror night. It'll keep you busy and you can easily one shot the game if you have the time to spare (avg 4-5 hours)

As a kid.. even 10 years ago when I was in middle school and firstly discovered this game by H2ODelirious, it got stuck with me. This game is highly underrated, it’s super good.. down to the story telling that doesn’t directly tell you what’s going on but letting you discover it yourself, the sound track, the art direction, the audio, everything. I recently got my hands on this and it’s still has amazing and very good since I’ve always saw it when I watched delirious play it. Even if there’s a remake, this original one will always stick with me. It’s just upsetting how underrated this absolute gem this game is.. exactly like Darkwood. Great amazing horror games and has about like 6 buses full of fans.. which isn’t fully bad, just wish more people knew about this game. Will forever cherish this game down to my core.

The most random horror game i have ever played and everyting that happens in the game is just so random. Its more of an experence than a game because it also doesn't really have much of a story. Its random in a good way though, the horror theme is actually pretty solid but it does rely a bit on jumpscares. The game was also quite short and i beat in a bit over 4 hours, but i think you could honestly beat it in 2 hours. 7/10 game overall.

If you're looking for a quick horror game it's pretty good, the achievements however are kind of terrible especially since one of the DLC achievements was so buggy I had to do all the endings three separate times. But it's a scary game if you want just a quick playthrough.
