PlayDead Inside is a free horror puzzle game that follows a boy into his darkest nightmares. There are many obstacles to overcome, while there isn’t really a plot to progress through. Instead, you’ll need to solve each chapter if you want to make it to the next one. Other horror games you may enjoy include Creepy, Evil Haunted Ghost Scary Cellar Horror Game and Haunted Warehouse.
The most intriguing part of the horror game is the puzzle element. Each level has various mechanisms and clues to solve, which tests your ability to think differently. You won’t have a combat system, so you’ll need to find ways to avoid danger and escape the nightmares that await you.
Survive the nightmare inside
This horror game is actually called Inside, the second in a series made by PlayDead that started with Limbo. It follows a similar boy who finds himself in nightmare scenarios, being chased by enemies that haunt him. There isn’t a proper introduction, and PlayDead Inside immediately throws you into the levels. You aim to survive each level by not allowing the enemies to catch or defeat you.
Solve several puzzles
You’ll have several aspects in PlayDead Inside that will test your intelligence. There are mechanisms and visual elements for you to solve, but you won’t always have the luxury of time. Every step along the journey in the game has new interesting features and clues, becoming more challenging later.
Movement and gameplay
The game has a 2D platform mechanic, which means the screen scrolls as you move from one side to the other. You can jump, run, move objects, and climb over certain items. Your skill in moving around different locations with these movements will determine if you survive.
What’s waiting for you inside?
While PlayDead Inside may not have a set story, it still keeps you engaged and entertained as you wonder what will happen next. There are many dark settings with enemies along the way, but you’ll need to test your skill in overcoming puzzles and obstacles.
Overall, it’s a fun horror experience with good visuals that will keep you busy for a few hours at least. Of course, it depends on how quickly you can clear the stages.
