I am fascinated by games with 2D art that still manage to give you a good scare. I guess what I find interesting is if a game can manage to translate the scares and audio design which we know from 3D environments and movies. I have never really played any though. I would love to hear some suggestions, especially with Halloween coming soon!
Darkwood, Fear & Hunger and Faith are some of the spookiest games I’ve played, and they are all 2D. They create horror via suspense and dread instead of just jump scares.
