4. Outlast

“Outlast | Part 4 | Scariest Monster Yet”

Outlast is a first-person survival horror game set inside Mount Massive Asylum, which rests deep in the mountains of Colorado. You play as Miles Upshur, an investigative journalist who comes to explore the asylum after receiving an anonymous tip about what dark secrets lie within. Mount Massive Asylum has been a long-abandoned home for the mentally ill before being re-instated as a research facility of a large corporation. Until you discover and explore the asylum, it has been operating in strict secrecy. You have your camera as your only means to navigate the dark, and no weapons.

This game forces you to function at your most scared, because you can’t fight. The uniqueness of this horror experience comes from the necessity of running and hiding. You will often find yourself face to face with the monstrous occupants of the asylum, managing to get just out of their grasp. Your enemies are the lost inhabitants of the place you are exploring, wretched souls trapped in their own minds as well as the building they’re held in.

Yes, Doctor?: One of the scarier members of the opposition will have you both intrigued and horrified as you listen to him speak, but you'll still need to run away from him. He’s not here to just chat.

Discern, Decide: Some of the residents of the asylum don't move and couldn't care less about your presence. But which are which? How do you know when to risk the danger?
