Are fish scary? Well, some people think so (looking at you, H.P. Lovecraft), but most gamers can agree that outside of Subnautica, you don't have to worry about the creatures you find in the water. However, what about fish that swim in oceans of blood? Okay, that'll do it.

Iron Lung is a phenomenal yet simple horror game that combines claustrophobia and thalassophobia into one neat package. You play as a convict who explores an ocean of blood on a distant moon, all inside a rusty and decaying submarine.

Your only ability to glimpse outside the submersible is through an archaic camera, and it's through that mechanism that you realise you're not alone in these waters (or, bloods?).

There comes a moment when you capture the image of an eye glaring right into the camera. Knowing something this big, threatening, and dangerous is out there is enough to make most people call it quits on this game, even if it's only an hour long.

In a weird turn of events, the legendary YouTuber Markiplier is working on a live-action movie adaptation of the short game. So, you'll soon get to see this freaky moment in another medium, hooray!
