Ripest of Fears

This is honestly one of the best concepts I've seen in a horror game yet. This is a rpg style horror game based around the Youtuber known as Markiplier (who does happen to be my favorite youtuber). You wake up in a strange room and find a note from Dr. Greene saying basically that you are now his test subject. You then go through some of Mark's most feared things from mannequins, to Slenderman, to even Jeff the Killer and Eyeless Jack. You also meet up with characters from a game that he apparently played a while ago and I don't remember it, but yeah. This game is all about choice, and there are many awesome, funny, and scary secrets that you basically subconsciously choose to do that makes this game so amazing. I hope you enjoy this almost as much as I did.

The Unknown (by Rico)

I recently downloaded this game because I was told to try it, and I am glad I complied. While this game was only made in 48 hours, it was better than some other games I've played that had a lot more time put into it. All you really know when entering this game is that you need to find some treasures, and you're certain you're not the only thing within those walls. It is said that those who stare at it are the ones who face the damage, so with that knowledge, just keep searching, and don't let yourself be caught staring at it.

The Corridor

This is a game that mostly tests how much of a scaredy cat you are.... and proved to me how much of one I can be. You start off in a hotel room that apparently you are staying in. You wake up because for some reason you can't sleep, so you decide you're going to go for a walk. When you open your door, the hallway seems a lot longer than you thought it was. You traverse the hallway to find another door that leads you to another room that seems mysterious to you. I won't tell more, because any more and I may give away too much, but when you finish this game, you will learn why I say it's one that tests how cowardly you can be.

Innovation Rating: 10/10 (the concept is so simple, but I haven't really seen other games like it)

Finding Pages V 0.1

I know this game is only a very early alpha at the moment, but even in it's current state it was already an amazing game to play. It's setting is similar to Slender, but has a whole new feeling to it in ways I can't really explain. It's similar to Slender in a sense that you have to walk around in the dark with a flashlight to find a certain amount of pages, but what I'm trying to say is that it doesn't exactly feel the same as it. Because this game is in early alpha, you can't expect too much from it in terms of enemies and obstacles keeping you from winning, but I'd say give it a try, and you'll be anticipating the full version about as much as I am
