Today is Halloween, and it is probably the best day to play spooky horror games with friends. On this occasion, we want to know from you: What is the scariest moment you have ever experienced in a game?
Scary and shocking moments are already pre-programmed in some games. In horror titles like Dead by Daylight or The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan, players regularly experience creepy in-game moments. Often, it is zombies, ghosts, or vampires that you have to watch out for.
However, eerie events in games can also unexpectedly occur in other genres. Perhaps they weren’t even planned by the developers but suddenly happen in the game due to technical issues.
Sometimes, there are glitches or bugs that lead to creepy elements, such as a mysterious ship bug that created a buzz in the Destiny 2 community.
Now we want to know from you: What is the scariest moment you have ever experienced in a game? This includes creepy experiences in horror games, but also in other genres where you might have had the occasional scare.
This time, the survey will be conducted in the comments section. Feel free to tell us what moment was the scariest you ever experienced in a game.
Feel free to share how your first reaction was in that moment. Did you run away from fright in the game, or did you jump up from your gaming chair? Did the moment occur in gameplay or in a cutscene? Were you able to sleep well afterward, or did that event haunt you in your nightmares for several nights?
Let us know in the comments and have fun with the survey.
