Cynical Cynicist Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I played it correctly and turned away when he appeared, so I didn't "lose" the game. If you want it to be scary, be a bit more careless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luggs Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Eh.....depends on your definition of scary. It's mostly jump scares so if those don't bother you, you'll be fine. Some bits are kinda disturbing but really nothing too terrifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spelunky Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 I don't mean that, I mean IS it scary? I haven't PLAYED it yet and don't want it to be TOO scary.Eh.....depends on your definition of scary. It's mostly jump scares so if those don't bother you, you'll be fine.

Cozyhut3 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Just played a little bit. It's quite gory... Lots of corpses and dismembered limbs, among other things. The monster itself really isn't that scary, but the whole atmosphere (lighting, SFX, etc.) of the game is kind of unsettling, which makes the run-ins with it all the more terrifying. I didn't play through the whole thing, but if you play it, I can at least tell you that your body will slowly stockpile adrenaline. (And sweat!) I can only assume that at the end, it will all come crashing down on you.God be with you soldier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 It depends.If jumpscares and stereotypical blood, gore, etc. don't scare you, then play it.Just make sure to look away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
