10 Best Home Invasion Horror Video Games
5. Cleansuit
Cleansuit is a unique gaming experience, to say the least. If you're looking for a horror title with the smooth gameplay of Dead Space or the graphical fidelity of Resident Evil Village, then you'll be barking up the wrong tree with this one. Still, regardless of that, it's a home invasion title that'll make you want to sleep with a night light on.
The game is a retro-style text-based horror experience. It puts you in the shoes of a person attempting to survive the onslaught of a maniac killer who is breaking into their house. You must find a way to defeat this villain through exploration and finding clever ways to fight back with household items.
Text-based gameplay isn't a style that rears its head very often in 2023, but that's what makes this title so special. The ability to generate any suggestion enables your curiosity and allows for a seemingly boundless amount of creativity in how you play the game.
The deliberately ugly aesthetics also provide Cleansuit with an uncanny and eerie atmosphere that plays into the terror of the narrative. For some, it will be nostalgic, and for others, it will be ugly and vile. Either way, it's a great time for fans of spooky gaming.
