Horror is a broad theme with a lot of different games and scary roles. If you’re okay with getting scared, you can find almost anything you want under that cover. To name a few, slashers, monster horror, and body horror are some of the most well-known types of horror.
Some movies use isolation as a major idea or just another way to scare people. This type of horror has become more and more popular over the years. There’s nothing more scary than being in a creepy house or graveyard by yourself, knowing that no one else is there. These are the best games that use the scary feeling of being alone to their benefit.
System Shock
It’s not easy to hack the famous Citadel Station, but you’re up to the challenge. It’s not just a cyberpunk first-person shooter, despite what you might think.Once you get to Citadel, System Shock quickly changes tone.
A paranoid and malicious AI has locked you in, and at every turn of your trip, it follows you, slows you down, and hunts you. When you know there is no one there to help you and that it’s either succeed or die, the task gets very terrifying very quickly. Also, there are a lot of freaks.
The Thing
The Thing, a horror game for game systems released in the early 2000s, was based on the movie that made the isolation horror genre famous. You and a few other Arctic researchers are stuck in a research base in the middle of a snowstorm because an alien that seemed to be dead has come back to life.
On top of that, it can pretend to be members of your team. If you think someone will make you feel better when you’re lonely, they might be out to kill you. It’s a game that both plays with and improves on the isolation genre.
Five Nights At Freddy’s
A scary game that brought people of different ages together to tell one story. Being a security guard at a kids’ pizza place overnight is a weird job that gets stranger as the nights go by. Watching cameras starts out as a simple game, but things quickly get more complex.
In FNAF, you are the first person in a long line of games that make you be alone in the dark with some creepy robots. It’s crazy how quickly a place that seems so cute and safe can become so dark and lonely.
The Mortuary Assistant
This is one of the most scary PC games ever.You should not play The Mortuary Assistant if you do not like scary games. The plot is pretty simple: you’re hired to help out at a neighborhood morgue. The job isn’t fun, but things get much scary than anyone told you they would.
It’s scary enough that you’re alone, but the bumps in the night and jump scares make it even worse. No one is there to help you or even to notice the strange things that happen at work while you’re there. You have to stay alive.
Layers Of Fear
In Layers of Fear, you’ll find a crumbling house, an artist who is having a hard time, and a long history of trauma. At first, the game doesn’t tell you much. You are just dropped in the house and are left to figure out what happened. By yourself.
You’ll also find a lot of rats and a spirit that is angry at you, which you may or may not have caused. It’s a strange take on the horror genre, but the isolation, looks, and sounds are all on a whole new level.
Alien: Isolation
This game has a good name. It makes you think: what’s worse than being stuck on a space station by yourself? After a confident answer, they put a dangerous Xenomorph on board with you.
The sound of your radar going off or a vent opening behind you is the only thing scarier than the quiet in this game. It’s a game that makes you feel even more alone because you’re so far away from anyone who could or would want to help you.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
The Amnesia series is the only one that really brings out the psychological horror of being alone in a scary way. Being the only person you can find is the worst thing about waking up in a creepy castle. Not knowing how you got there is even worse.
It almost makes you happy to see a figure round a dark corner, until you realize it’s a horribly misshapen monster coming at you. Since the first game came out, it’s been a big name in horror.
Soma
You are lost and alone when you wake up. There are miles of water between you and the next person who can help you, and horrible robotic experiments are looking for you. That’s the main plot of Soma, and it’s a very scary trip.
Body horror is the only aspect of horror that can rival Soma’s isolation terror. As soon as you see one of the monsters in Backrooms Game, you’ll want to be back in the dark halls of the building by yourself. You may not be having as much fun as you had thought on your cruise.
Silent Hill
A true classic, both in and out of the horror field. In Silent Hill, an American town that seems normal is turned on its head. The things that crawl out of the crumbling buildings and sound-eating fog make things even worse.
In the fog, seeing your daughter or another survivor for a short time is very comforting. On the other hand, being alone in the fog again is very scary. There will be a long-running and very well-liked set of games like this one that make isolation horror fun again.
Dead Space
A game that does a great job of combining horror and science fiction. Dead Space has added a lot to the horror genre, but that first game did it the best. After seeing your team get killed in front of you, you are told to walk around the empty rooms of the Ishimura, a ship that used to hold a lot of people.
You meet some really weird monsters on your journey, but what scares me more is Isaac’s mind, which is left to its own devices while The Marker and the other monsters around him change it. That journey is all by yourself, and it has many turns and scares.
