Genre: Strategic Horror, Puzzle, Stealth/Action Hybrid.
Target Audience: Teens (13–18 years old), Fans of strategic horror and stealth-action games like Hitman, Dead by Daylight, or Hello Neighbor.
Description: In this game, you are the monster. Your mission is not merely to hunt your victims, it’s to terrify them. Every scream, every terrified reaction brings you closer to victory.
Using strategy, stealth, and your monster’s special abilities, you must create perfect scenarios of fear, manipulate the environment, and hunt down your targets before they escape.
The more fear you generate, the stronger you become. But beware, your victims will adapt, setting traps, hiding, and trying to call for help.
Gameplay Overview:
Perspective: Top-view camera with optional first-person mode for special moments (executing scares or using powers).
Setting: A city at night, full of narrow alleys, abandoned buildings, parks, and hidden paths.
At the beginning of the game, you must select your monster. There are many, and each one has a different set of abilities.
• The Shadow
Ability: Stealth - Can blend into darkness and silently move between shadows without being detected.
• The Siren
Ability: Psychological - Can whisper into victims’ minds, causing hallucinations or panic.
• The Butcher
Ability: Brute Force - Can destroy walls and objects to corner victims, but moves more slowly.
• The Phantom
Ability: Manipulation - Can control lights, doors, and objects remotely to create terrifying traps.
Explore the map to locate potential victims. Frighten, isolate, and terrorize your targets until they panic. Level up your fear meter to unlock new and progress to harder districts of the city.
Each potential victim has a visible Fear Meter above their head. The monster's goal is to drive this meter too, triggering a “Scream Event.” The victims will “pass away” out of horror.
Simply trying to run behind your victims may end with them escaping. You must create the perfect strategy using your abilities and the environment. Something comparable to the HITMAN games.
You are not the hero. You are the fear itself.
Genre: Psychological Horror, Puzzle, Narrative
Platform: PC / Consoles
Target audience: Players who enjoy horror that makes you question what you see, not just jump scares, with mechanics that force you to observe and think before acting.
Game description: Halloween... the scariest night of the year. Children laughing everywhere, elaborate costumes, decorations, scares, and lots of candy... traditional things associated with this time of year flooded the place. Everything was going smoothly and normally... until a blackout enveloped the streets in darkness.
At first, it seems like a normal blackout, after all, they are sudden and common occurrences, until you notice something strange. The pumpkins that dimly lit the streets with their flames weren't the only thing reflected on the streets... they also cast shadows that moved on their own, as if they were people. Some look normal and friendly, helping you find the right paths so you don't get lost in the shadows, but others behave strangely, as if they were alive. These shadows could take any form, making it difficult to know what to believe and what not to believe. What could be an innocent child crying in fear could turn into something aggressive and terrifying in a matter of seconds.
The player questions what to trust. They must be constantly aware of their surroundings, as shadows and different signs can be their salvation or their downfall
Main mechanics:
Objective and endings:
The main objective of the game is to survive the night and discover the cause of the blackout and the origin of the strange pumpkins. The decisions the player makes during the course of the game will influence their final fate:
This game is not only about learning to differentiate between truth and falsehood, but also about showing what kind of person you are when fear puts you to the test.
