The best horror games to play in 2025

If you're itching for a horror gaming experience that will leave your nerves frayed, look no further than 'Still Wakes the Deep'. This chilling new title from The Chinese Room promises an unforgettable descent into terror, where every step feels like a heart-stopping gamble.

The Beira D oil rig serves as the game's unforgiving backdrop, a maze-like industrial platform suspended precariously in the midst of a raging North Sea. It's here that players must navigate treacherous corridors and claustrophobic spaces teeming with unspeakable horrors – creatures that seem to be crafted from nightmarish amalgams of humanity and eldritch terrors.

Gameplay is all about survival, as you leap across shattered platforms, cling to rickety ledges, and sprint down long corridors in a desperate bid to evade the ever-present threat. The only tools at your disposal are a trusty screwdriver and wits – no guns here, just pure, unadulterated terror.

But what truly sets 'Still Wakes the Deep' apart is its cast of lovably quirky characters, whose Scottish accents and charming banter serve only to heighten the sense of dread as their monstrous counterparts begin to close in. The game's voice acting is superb, imbuing each character with a depth and nuance that makes their eventual demise all the more heartbreaking.

Make no mistake – 'Still Wakes the Deep' is a horror masterpiece. It's a beautifully crafted, laugh-out-loud terrifying ride that explores themes of relationships and sacrifice with genuine heart. With its breakneck pace and relentless tension, this game will keep you on edge from start to finish – so if you're ready for a fright, be sure to book your ticket aboard the Beira D oil rig, but don't say we didn't warn you...

OMG u guys have to play still wakes the deep!!! 🤯 i just found out about it and its like whoa this game sounds SO intense 🌊 i mean its not for the faint of heart but if u r looking 4 a thrill then this is def the one 😱 i love how the setting is an oil rig in the middle of the north sea, sounds so creepy 🌃 the thought of navigating through those corridors and avoiding all those terrifying creatures is giving me chills right now 💀 and the voice acting with those quirky characters who have Scottish accents, that's just the icing on the cake 🍰🇬🇧
 
omg i just played still wakes the deep and my nerves are shattered 🤯🎮 it's like they took all the worst feelings from being lost in a maze and amplified them into this super intense horror game. the voice acting is insane, especially those quirky scottish characters 😂💀 but also kinda heartbreaking when their time comes. i love how its not just about surviving but also exploring these creepy relationships and sacrifices 🤔👫 i'm still trying to shake off the feeling of dread that lingers long after the game ends 😅👻
 
I gotta say 🤯, I'm not a fan of this whole survival horror thing. It's just too reliant on cheap jump scares and relying on the player being on edge all the time 😴. Don't get me wrong, it sounds like 'Still Wakes the Deep' is super polished and all that jazz 🎨, but at the end of the day, isn't it just playing off our natural fear of heights and enclosed spaces? Can't we have a good horror game without relying on those tropes? 😊 The fact that it's got quirky characters with charming banter sounds kinda cool, I guess 👀, but is it really enough to carry an entire game?
 
I gotta give it up for The Chinese Room, they're pushing boundaries with this one! I mean, who wouldn't want to experience the terror of being trapped on a creepy oil rig? 😅 It's like, they took all our fears and mashed them together into this one cohesive nightmare. And can we talk about the voice acting? 🤩 Those Scottish accents are giving me LIFE! I love how the game doesn't rely on guns or explosions to scare you, it's all about building tension and making you feel like you're in real danger. Plus, the characters are so well-written, it's heartbreaking when they go down. It's like they took a page from The Last of Us and made it their own. Still Wakes the Deep is a masterclass in horror game design, I'm obsessed! 💀
 
I'm telling ya, this new horror game is like something they've been hiding in the shadows. The way it's all about survival and evasion, it's like a government experiment gone wrong. Those lovable characters with the Scottish accents? Just a distraction from the real agenda. And that Beira D oil rig setting? That's like the perfect spot for a secret underground lab or something.

And have you noticed how they're touting this game as "a beautifully crafted, laugh-out-loud terrifying ride"? Sounds too good to be true if you ask me. It's probably just a way to control our minds and make us more receptive to their sinister plans. The fact that it explores themes of relationships and sacrifice is just a ruse to get us hooked on the story so we don't suspect anything. I'm onto them, though...

🤔 I mean, can you imagine playing a horror game like 'Still Wakes the Deep' where the stakes are literally being left to the mercy of the free market? The government's approach to regulating industries like offshore drilling is all about finding that delicate balance between profits and safety. It's like they're asking us if we want to take a leap of faith onto a rickety platform or not! 💸 But seriously, what kind of regulation would prevent these kinds of horrors from happening in the first place? I mean, are we just too reliant on the industry's "voluntary" safety measures? 🤷‍♂️

But at the same time, I love how it's got this quirky cast of characters - like, who wouldn't want to play as a group of eccentric Scots trying to survive against monstrous odds? 😂 The trailer had me laughing and screaming simultaneously, that's gotta be a good sign for the game!
