10 One-Of-A-Kind Horror Video Games

If you want a horror game that will get your adrenaline pumping and give you an abundance of scares, then maybe you should consider something like Outlast instead of this.

Mysteries of Baroque is not your typical experience in gaming as a whole, let alone the horror genre. But, if you've got the patience for it, then you'll have one hell of a spooky time in this twisted and creative title.

The Mysteries of Baroque allows you to take control over a character who has been revived by a mad scientist and given a new lease on life. The choice of what to do with this gift is left to your discretion, as you can either seek revenge against your killers or do some good.

However, while that all sounds traditional enough, it's the game's content itself that will surprise you, as it's actually a 200,000-word novel that alters and shifts depending on your choices. There's no graphics or audio, just text and what you can conjure up in your mind.

You can probably tell from that description if it appeals to you or not, but exploring the city of Baroque is a mighty worthwhile experience if you're happy to get your reading glasses out.
