Scary times with the squad
Horror gamesare usually a bit too scary for me to play alone.
I actually barely manage to play them at all, though not for lack of trying.
Here are five games in which your mates can play as the monster.
Some are creepy, some are cute, and none of them will force you to run around alone.
No overlap, promise.
Evil Dead: The Game
Evil Dead: The Gameisnt really about screaming at all.
Rip and tear, and all that goodness.
Evil Deadheads would probably call it groovy.
It also lets you catch ghosties with a Proton Pack.
A bestest best FPS weapon, if you will.
For the ghosts, though, its all about building fear.
That boils down to a game of prop hunt, and some of the objects are hilarious to pilot.
They dont just slide around the floor as they do inMidnight Ghost Hunt.
In Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, the ghost can control big stuffed teddy bears.
The big stuffed teddy bears are fully animated.
They just awkwardly womble around.
Its not really a disguise.
Your mate is obviously the living teddy bear.
White Noise 2
Alright, its time for the spooky one.
White Noise 2 is by far the scariest game on this list.
But, you dont creep around alone!
Your friends can creep around too!
What are you trying to hide from?
In White Noise 2, your main weapon is light, which you might use to stun the monster.
However, its also essentially your health bar, as your flashlight battery will slowly drain.
Friday The 13th: The Game
Look, we all know the story.
Phasmophobia
Okay, so this one is kind of a lie.
Theres no become the ghost mode inPhasmophobia, but still watch out for your pals.
They can be little shits, even when you think youre safe in the comfort of co-op.
See, I’m not great at entering Phasmophobia’s many haunted houses alone.
So, I patiently wait for my mates while they gather some gear, and we all enter together.
They then slam it behind them and hold it closed, which stops me from escaping easily.
This is how lamps get smashed in VR.
My pals are the worst.
Theyre the real monsters.
