Amnesia
Amnesia is another title that showed how to do first person horror right. Walking in the darkness slowly causes your character to fall victim to insanity. You never truly know what’s real and what is just your mind playing tricks on you. The monsters that stalk you appear out of thin air, relentlessly chasing you. It’s yet another horror game that proves why it’s much more terrifying to be alone and unarmed.
Resident Evil 7 doesn’t leave you completely defenseless but the sense of dread and uncertainty that is present throughout is just as terrifying as the disfigured creatures you dismember. Amnesia certainly proved that jump scares aren’t the only way to unsettle a player, relying instead on an incredibly thick and all-encompassing atmosphere.
