This feels really similar to Visage with the realistic environment and high-quality graphics, but there’s more direction with this game, in the form of letters and messages to keep you hooked. Your task? Being as stealthy as possible to escape, whilst avoiding spirits trying to kill you. You play as Tim, a broken man following the disappearance of his wife, who wakes up in an unknown place.

What scores this game extra scare points for me is that the house feels like real living quarters, with its impressive graphics, authentic lighting, and first-person view. Hide from the spirits who try to drag you to your death – without weapons to defend yourself. There was very little in the way of instruction, which is deliberate it makes you feel as though you’re completely on your own.
