BLAIR WITCH SURVIVAL GUIDE
BLAIR WITCH SURVIVAL GUIDE
Bloober Team’s Blair Witch launches this Friday on Xbox, and is a Gamepass title. Since its on Gamepass, many people who are unfamiliar with horror games, will likely give it a try. With the building hype for the game, thought I’d do a fun little survival guide for the game. Horror games are a vastly different experience from other titles. These prey on your fears, and make it their mission to scare the living wits out of players. The best horror titles are not only scary, but thought provoking as well. Bloober Team specializes in these type of horror games, so Blair Witch will aim to do the same. Below is a fun guide for both newcomers to the horror genre, and seasoned vets.
LESS SCARY PLAYTHROUGH
- Play in well-lit room
- Play during the day
- Play with a group of family/friends present
Playing in a well-lit room, during the day, and with others present helps ease the uneasiness and tension this type of games bring. In fact, playing with a group of people often makes these games quite funny as you all laugh while being scared half-to-death.
TERRIFYING PLAYTHROUGH
- Play in dark room
- Play late at night
- Play by yourself
- Play with a headset on (enhances the horror sound effects, music, etc.)
Playing in the dark, late at night, all alone, and with headphones, skyrockets the potency of horror titles. If you want the absolute most bang for your buck from a horror title, then this is the playthrough you seek.
