About the game
A first-person horror game in which you play a journalist who goes into a suspicious psychiatric hospital to investigate and encounters the horrific things happening there. You have no weapons, so when you meet enemies your only options are to hide or run. You look through the darkness with your camcorder's night vision mode, and the constantly draining batteries add to the tension. With lots of graphic violence, it's a game suited to adult players.
Why we recommend it
The helplessness of being unable to fight, only hide and run, made it a defining first-person horror game.
Good for — Great for: adult gamers who want the fear of running away and intense tension
