Scariest game you know?
For me it is Resident Evil 2 OG. That noise of the lickers and overall their presense is so creepy. Everything else in the game is creepy too. (I used to say Bioshock but i changed it.)

Central Station, by Modern. It's an obscure horror RPG set in a train station that itself is an allegory to purgatory. You play Vos, a wanderer who punches people. Your goal is to locate the Conductor, who has gone missing. You do this by punching the Seven Deadly Sins to death.

Fatal Frame 2 I guess.

Real Life.

...it has the highest definition graphics of any game, -ever-, but it's also the only game I know of where you can ACTUALLY DIE while playing it. I suggest playing it as little as possible.

If you do have to play "Real Life", be very careful which sub-games or "mini-games" you play, as some of them have an increasingly higher chance of causing you to die and, when you die in a mini-game while playing "Real Life" you die in the main game too.

Turns out avid gamers, who stay inside playing video-games all the time, might be some of the smartest people there are. (Although, I'd also recommend raising your evasion stat to, oh... idk... 479 million. That way you can be missed while you're still alive and not die.)

Silent Hill. Granted, that was like two decades ago but it was scary and disturbing.

Nowadays with horror games it's just lots of blood "oooh, scary!" and a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of jumpscares and predictable stuff. Kind of hard to find a good horror game these days IMO.

Only thing about it that is a severe issue to me is the horrible filter whenever you're in the dark area. Its really hard to look at, and I'd much rather have a pitch black kind of darkness instead of a "shiny" one. This is what I mean:

1:50, it may look minor, but trust me, it isn't. Compare it to the very first loading screen where the protagonist is running in an empty void, and you'll see how light it actually is during gameplay.

FEAR 1 & Alone In The Dar New Nightmare...

Probably takes the cake in Creepy Menu Sounds...

------------

Fear 1 had really good lighting & blood effects for a horror sense...

------------

Gameplay? The Evil Within or Silent Hill probably wins this element of creepy atmosphere...

-------------

Maybe Resident Evil is creepy for its in Game sound effects, such as a zombie munching on something off screen, or zombies moaning? No?

------------

House Of The Dead was good for jump scares, though thats up to the players to decide...

------------

Slenderman Arival is creepy for always thinking something is lurking around you, even though your very much alone...

-------------

Scariest Game?

Prob that hololens game, where you map out your house, & something haunts your house while your sitting on the couch watching tv at night in the dark, knocks at the door, when no ones outside, & such, oO

It uses your house layout, & you see yourself, too...

So the experience feels very real...

Outlast

I think most scary I play recently is Outlast. The jump scares are good, but the panic feeling when there is chase is great.

Doom 64 maybe? I don´t think that one was mentioned in the earlier, similar threads.

I'm not sure if I can add any more to these threads that was already said. I'll just link them here. If you´re okay with it. I don't want to keep repeating the same thing. Maybe easier to find for you like this.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Quite a few jump scares, but once you reach the Choir, the game gets really dark.

Observer
Has some pretty cool ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ moments and some of the dreameater sequences are pretty unnerving.

Dead Space 1, main character is a mute, the voice acting is good, even has the black guy who gets kicked into the pit in the film 300 as a voice actor.

Set on a planet cracker space ship, dark, creepy and loaded with not so dead 'dead things, every level the situation gets worst.

Finally it has a creepy 'twinkle twinkle little star' tune.
Outlast 1 and 2, I've passed many strokes to end these games
