It´s been quite a while since i played a horror game that made me jump out of my chair. But Junkfish studio´s labyrinth survival horror game “Monstrum”, sure as hell made me jump out of my damn chair.

Because it´s like a mix of Call of cthulhu and Slender Man (plus some Bioshock vibes on top of that). Then it´s the whole thing with the fact that you´re being hunted my monsters that´s looking for you.

And you don´t really know where you should go either (and each time you replay the game, it´s a new map). So you got this constant fear, anxiety and paranoia going down. And in case you wonder. The goal of Monstrum would be to escape from the horrors on the boat (which you just happen to be on board of).

Which of course, is easier said than done. Anyhow, please enjoy the video =)
