Brings what grabs you about Hektor: dread and tension, a dark atmosphere as well as a pure single-player experience.

A short first-person meta-horror nightmare that targets the player and the game itself. You hunt for keys and exits while the game constantly deceives you and breaks the fourth wall.

Slender: The Eight Pages

Dread and tension

You wander a dark forest at night with a weak flashlight, collecting eight pages while the Slender Man stalks you. Its minimalist design and creeping dread made the free game a viral horror hit.

Wick

Dread and tension

You explore a dark forest alone at night with only a candle, hunting for the ghosts of lost children. Your candlelight is both protection and a limited resource, creating constant tension.

Slender: The Arrival

Dread and tension

A short first-person horror trip where you gather clues through dark forests and abandoned buildings, weaponless, while the Slender Man closes in. Tension comes from darkness, a flickering flashlight and sudden jump scares.

Iron Lung

Pure single-player experience

You pilot a cramped submarine blindly through an ocean of blood on an alien moon, relying on coordinates, maps and photos. Its claustrophobic, oppressive atmosphere makes this short game an intense horror experience.

Affected: The Manor

Pure single-player experience

The Complex: Found Footage

Dread and tension

A walking-simulator horror game viewed through a VHS camera, in which you wander endless dreamlike Backrooms-style spaces. Its cryptic story raises more questions than it answers.
