10 Best Home Invasion Horror Video Games
3. Suffer The Night
If you liked the text-based gaming of Cleansuit but felt some withdrawal symptoms from a lack of first-person survival horror, then you're going to love this one. Suffer the Night takes both these subgenres and mashes them together into a gaming experience that shouldn't work but does.
In this game, you play the role of a horror painter who lives in the mountains. One day you're awoken by a storm and soon find that someone has dropped a floppy disk through your letterbox. On the disk is a text-based adventure game, but as you play this title, you discover that a terrifying stranger is trying to get into your house.
The text-based adventure is solid in its own right, and the survival horror is incredibly effective thanks to the well-designed house, tense atmosphere and incredibly creepy antagonist.
While the main villain can be a little goofy and looks awfully similar to The Babadook, there's an uncanniness to them that'll leave you quaking in your boots.
At this stage, Suffer the Night is a free-to-play demo, meaning the future of this already very strong indie horror seems bright. It's one you'll want to keep your eye on.
