Dead Estate
A hidden timer on most floors sets loose Chunks, a giant brute that chases you across the floor…
PC / PlayStation / Switch
In these games something follows you. A killer walks the halls, a giant breaks through doors, a figure stands in the street a little closer each time you look. Mostly you cannot fight it, so you listen for its steps, keep quiet, hide in wardrobes and run when it finds you. The fear is in never knowing how near it is.
