Game Overview
Fear the Spotlight is a third-person survival horror adventure with a PS1 inspired visual style. After a séance goes wrong, you have to solve puzzles, hide from monsters, and search an empty school for your missing friend. A “cozier” horror game: no jump-scares, focuses on story, and builds a tense creepy atmosphere. If you’re new to the horror genre, or are more of a scaredy-cat, we think you’d enjoy this play through.
Key Features:
• Retro 3D art style inspired by PS1 horror classics like Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
• Explore and solve physical puzzles in a unique point-and-click mode.
• Sneak your way through monster encounters, because you cannot fight back.
• Filled with tense hand-crafted moments that don’t stop until the game is over.
• Suspenseful atmosphere is brought to life with a surreal soundscape and carefully detailed locations.
• Featured on the 2022 Haunted PS1 Demo Disc.
