All of the games below were released in 2024 and each offer their own unique take on horror, from claustrophobic dread to psychological jump scares.
Although CONSCRIPT is set during World War I, the horror extends far beyond the battlefield. As a soldier separated from his comrades, you begin to experience bizarre, otherworldly events in the trenches. The plot revolves around historical horror with supernatural elements, creating a gripping story where survival seems impossible.
CONSCRIPT's slow build of dread, combined with resource management and puzzle solving, adds layers to the chilling atmosphere. Its unique setting and combination of real horror with the supernatural make it a standout, though its niche appeal holds it back from scoring higher.
