Post a game that looks cute and friendly on first glance, but after playing it it’s actually a horror game
Seeing as I’ve been playing a few more horror games as of late, I’ve decided to ask around and see if people also had this sort of experience.
As we all know, some games are incredibly cute and friendly on first glance, where it doesn’t look scary or horrible.
But after playing it for a while, it actually scares you, and you can’t go five feet without looking around the corner carefully.
I can name three games that follow this formula.
1. Portal. On first glance it looks like a puzzle game, and with an AI that loves to smack talk. But once you get to the later test chambers and see all the Rat Mans little hideouts, it gets reaaaaallllyy creepy.
2. Subnautica. Now you might be thinking, “What? Why?”
I’ll tell you why, it easily preys upon the fear of the ocean and when a goddamn reaper has you in its mouth, you can scream like a little bitch.
3. WoW.
Again, you might be thinking, “WHY?”. That’s because some of the weird shit that has never been explained. Like bodies floating in water, Outlands cannibal witch, and anything to do with the Scourge.
Anyways, I’ve ranted long enough, post games that are supposed to friendly, but are actually terrifying

Arizona Sunshine. You think it's just a nice cartoony zombie game until you turn around with one of the -blam!-ers screaming in your face. Literal PTSD simulator.
