There are two games that have scarred me more than any others that I've played, but not for the reason that most people constitute a "Scary game." I view scary games not as something that have a lot of monsters that jump out of a closet and go "A bloogey-woogey-woo!" That's simply startling. A opossum could come flying through the window and it'd make me jump and scream, but then it'd be over after that because all it is, is STARTLING. For a game to actually scare me it has to get into my mind, make the adrenaline pump, and have to actually kick in that survival instinct that screams in my mind, "YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIIIIIIIIIEEEEE!!!!!"

GuardianZack : True that. That game is scarier than being with Jeffrey Dahmer in a dark closet.

DOOM 3, specially if you are a kid and complete it after midnight, alone and in a dark room

Scariest game I've ever played myself... would be Haunting Ground, I guess. It's just like Clock Tower, except it doesn't look like crap. It's only moderately scary, I dunno.

I've seen some scary games though. My brother used to play scary games with me because I like being all rattled and excited but I'm too much of a puss to actually get through it myself, haha. We played Silent Hill up to the 4th one I think, and those are scary as all get out because they're just mind rape, man. The monsters and sounds are scary too, not to mention the limited ammo, but just how crazy everything is all the time you can't even get your bearings.

Amnesia is the scariest game I've watched someone play. Lazlo and I played it a few months ago (didn't finish, unfortunately =( ) and I actually gasped and shrieked a few times, as well as hiding my face when something got really terrifying, hahah. Pretty pathetic now that I think about it, sitting here with the lights on and stuff, but we shut ourselves up in a room with no outside noises or light, and man you get sucked into it before you even know it. Lazlo wanted me to take over so he could run to the bathroom one time and I stepped on some of the weird living tissue junk that harms you if you step on it (I didn't see it) and I about rocketed out of my chair when I was damaged. That was the last time I ever took control, hah!

Thinking back on it,My little pony secret of the blanks was actually pretty creepy,Its a NES styled flash game where you play as applebloom trying to get out a (Spoiler) haunted village filled with evil ponies

One of the scariest games I have played was Clock Tower 3. A very good game in my opinion. This was one of the games that I always played during the night time and never the day time. I played it with my dad and brothers so it was more of a family thing. The boss characters always chased you in and sometimes it would scare me or one of my brothers. It didn't help that the main character's heart beat would increase when she was scared or being followed by the boss. I will never forget how the Sledgehammer scared the crap out of me when he killed a little girl by bashing her little body with a sledgehammer during a cut scene. It sent chills down my body and after seeing that I was afraid to play the game cause he chases after you as soon as the cut scene has finished. His voice was so scary and fighting him was so epic back in the day, the boss music I loved it ! The good old times

I'm terrible with horror games. I get scared extremely easily in horror games.



SCP - Containment breach: A fan made game based off of the SCP series that's still only in the very early alpha stages...




Never again. Seriously; no. I refuse to play that again. I literally could not sleep for until I was up for 35 hours straight and just simply passed out. And I must have played no longer than 20 minutes.


I'm sure if I played with it for a while longer I would eventually grow a bit more resistant to the scares, like some people do when they play enough of Amnesia: The Dark Descent.... but not even going to bother with it. It's a good game but I rather not need to buy a new pair of boxers every time I play it.

Pokefreak219 : ha i do agree with that

One of the scariest game I have ever played was Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 back in the 90s.

theavengers678 : You need to edit your layout. Your text is too difficult to read with that background.

When I was 3 I would play mortal combat, one time I saw my oppent rip the guts out of Scorpio, literally, I was so scared I had 3 night mares about it, also my mom wouldn't let me play aging.

rcarter2 : Alright.

Cryostasis is the one of the most scariest games I ever played. I think mostly because this memory flashbacks and freaking ice reflecions. And if you really wanna be afraid when playing video game u should try it. It's old game ( I think like 4-5 years old) but it's still good and keeps in tension. 

would you count the game slender if you do then thats it`s jump scares golure it`s so scariy.

Slender and Silent Hill are the most recent scary games if played Slender really shuck me iam not going near the woods for a while and when i see mist and here weird noises im turning back
