๐Ÿ“ New Blog Drop: Cry of Fear โ€“ What Real Depression Looks Like

Hey gamers ๐Ÿ‘‹

Just dropped a brand-new blog on Hashnode, and this one hits different. Iโ€™m diving into Cry of Fear, one of the most haunting psychological horror games ever made.

This isnโ€™t your usual โ€œrun from the monsterโ€ horror title. Nope. Itโ€™s a raw, unsettling look at depression, trauma, and isolation, brought to life through disturbing design choices that make you feel the same helplessness Simon (the protagonist) is going through.

๐Ÿ”Ž In this blog, I explore:
๐ŸŽฎ How Cry of Fear uses level design to mirror mental health struggles
๐ŸŽฎ Why its clunky, old-school mechanics actually make it scarier
๐ŸŽฎ The symbolism behind its enemies and sound design
๐ŸŽฎ Why some of the most powerful horror doesnโ€™t come from jump scares

๐Ÿ‘‰ Check it out here: Cry Of Fear

Now Iโ€™m curious โ€“ whatโ€™s a game that really made you stop and reflect on yourself?

Drop your thoughts below ๐Ÿ‘‡
