In Layers of Fear 2, you play as an unnamed actor in the midst of filming a movie on a 1950s era cruise ship.
Hope that Bloober Team could take what they had learned from the original and make a great sequel. So when I heard about Layers of Fear 2, I had hope. Unfortunately, psychological horror is really hard to pull off, and as a result, the original Layers of Fear simply wasn’t scary. Don’t get me wrong, jump scares have their place (and Layers of Fear threw in a few), but I like to be scared on a whole different level. It attempted to do psychological horror rather than just throwing cheap jump scares at the player. The worst part about it was that I saw its potential. This is our Layers of Fear 2 review.Ī few years ago, I played through a little game called Layers of Fear.
Frankly, I guess I just like being scared.
Yet for some reason, I’m drawn to horror games time and time again. Even the lamest scary movie will keep me up at night, especially if there are clowns, mannequins, or creepy children involved. Let me start off by saying, I am a huge wuss when it comes to horror.
