Has it been too long since you heard the terrified screams of your best friends? A horror game on Steam could quickly change that – and for under €10.
Which game are we talking about? We are referring to the co-op horror game Demonologist, developed by Clock Wizard Games and released on September 25, 2023, on Steam. It has also received very positive reviews: 86% of the reviews on Steam are positive.
You can get Demonologist on Steam for just €8.87 until March 20.
You can see a short teaser for the game here:
Co-op Ghost Hunting with High Scare Factor
What is the game about? In Demonologist, you hunt evil spirits at cursed locations. While you can confront them alone, it’s better to work in a group of up to 4 players.
The gameplay loop is essentially the same as in Phasmophobia: You need to determine what type of spirit you’re dealing with in order to exorcise it. However, the spirit will try to stop you – and not just with a restraining order.
Why not just play Phasmophobia? After all, the game has a 96% positive rating on Steam, making it much better rated. Nevertheless, for some types of players, Demonologist might be a real alternative – especially if Phasmophobia isn’t scary enough for you.
Many players who have left their reviews on Steam also agree that Demonologist is the scarier alternative to Phasmophobia:
- Tenaciousmc (via Steam): “Among the many Phasmophobia clones, Demonologist stands out by creating its own identity – particularly as a scarier alternative.”
- BuDDaHHeaD (via Steam): “[…], the game that takes everything you love about ghost hunting and cranks it up to 11 – or maybe even 12 if you count the panicked screams of your friends. […] It’s like Phasmophobia on steroids – but with way more demons and significantly fewer ‘I’m not scared’ moments.”
- SizzleCat69 (via Steam): “The first game that really made me jump and scream out loud! Much better than Phasmophobia and way scarier.”
If you are looking for something different, you can also find a game in the Steam Spring Sale where you dig a hole. Perhaps this could help you recover from the exhausting ghost hunt.
