11. Only Us

  • Developer: Tristan Mastrodicasa
  • Genre: Escape Room, Horror, Puzzle

Don’t confuse this title for a multiplayer game – “Only Us” stands for you and a partner that you never signed up for.

No biggie, right? Well, here’s the catch – you’re not alone. So, will you be able to do your job and get out of there…alive?

Who said horror can be only in houses and forests, nowadays the space station is also not safe.

You’ll be locked in a mansion and your goal is to find the key to the main door using clues and get the hell out of there ASAP!

Because there’s a creature lurking in the shadows playing hide and seek with you. And if you have “guts” then do try the Nightmare mode where your torch is the only source of light!

Get ready for a wild night – it’s going to be so intense you’ll find yourself screaming, “Why me?!” (editor note: super high brain wordplay)

8. CatOS VR

This Vr Game Scares Me....
  • Genre: Action, Horror, Sports
  • Developer: Acidic Reaction Studios

Not every horror VR game has to be intense. Sometimes playing together with friends and family and just screaming is more fun than actual horror.

In CatOS VR, you must outrun a fully custom AI-controlled cat while exploring eerie environments, interacting with other players, and even customising your character with cosmetic items.

The cat moves independently with random destinations, creating a sense of unpredictability and suspense.

CatOS VR combines horror elements with comedic aspects, creating a unique blend of emotions… You can say it’s a pretty “funny horror VR game.” (…hehe)
