Horror
The genre of "horror" games is designed to scare players. Thrill-seekers associate themselves with the character of the video game, which evokes stronger emotions than watching a movie made in the "Horror" genre. Most often, such projects use a third-person or first-person view. Horrors combine action and quest elements.
