10 Cruel Tricks Video Games Played On Horror Players
3. Do As You're Told - Blair Witch (2019)
From developers Bloober Team (the horror masterminds behind Layers Of Fear and Observer), Blair Witch saw us return to the sinister depths of the notorious Black Hills Forrest. Set two years after the events of The Blair Witch Project film, this game saw you take on the role of former police officer Ellis who, alongside his canine companion Bullet, enters the woods in search of a missing boy.
It's not long before Ellis's search took a malevolent turn as he's led deeper into the witch’s domain. Strange entities emerge from the darkness to torment him while traumatic visions from his past begin to blur the line between past and present.
It becomes apparent that the witch intends to toy with Ethan's head. But this deception goes further than it seems. In a deviously clever twist, the witch has been manipulating you since the very beginning.
If you've as much as picked up any of the figurine collectables, killed an enemy, or followed any of the witch’s instructions, you'll have fallen for her trap. Without even realising that you've done anything wrong until it's too late, you'll have locked yourself into the bad ending of the game.
