Fear the Spotlight will be releasing on PS5 and PS4 October 22nd, 2024
Fear the Spotlight is a creepy love letter to classic 90s horror experiences with a focus on rich storytelling, puzzle solving, and a tense atmosphere. This is a perfect narrative horror game for those new to the genre. Fear the Spotlight is developed by Cozy Game Pals and published by Blumhouse Games.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "It's strange to think of how a developer named Cozy Game Pals was able to expertly blend sentimentality with horror. Granted, many other retro indie horrors incorporate combat, so paring that aspect does make for a more mechanically-limited experience here. But that removal also gives Fear The Spotlight a different cadence that's appropriate for its setting and protagonists. Its heightened focus on ambiance, puzzle design, storytelling, pacing, and more congeal to make something that deserves attention."
The Outerhaven writes: With satisfying and story-related puzzle and genuine chills, Fear the Spotlight delivers a top-notch, bite-sized, lo-fi horror experience. Contrary to its title, it steps into the spotlight as the best indie horror game of the year.
A fantastic nostalgia-fueled horror game with an atmosphere, plot, and characters that are gripping and worthy of a trek
