Thinking about buying Penumbra Overture, but how scary is it?
Mikiyikiy:
I heard it's pretty scary bro. But I saw a video and it has quite a few interesting gameplay mechanics I'd really like to try.
Please explain how it's scary. IE Scenarios. Please try not to spoil any of it for me.

It's probability not too bad, I thought alien swarm was going to be scary, it wasn't.
maybe you should watch some more game play of it and decide for yourself.

Probably not too bad?
It's loving scary. stuff your pants scary.
Though, it depends on you though. It's not the "pop out and make you jump" kind of game, its more of the "so suspenseful it makes you stuff your pants"
IE: At one point you get chased by some gigantic loving worm thing.
You have to do certain things to delay it, and you cant really turn around because it will forget you over and you'll die.

The zombies in black plague are pretty scary.

This game is terrifying. The entire time you don't know what to expect.
