Outlast

Release Date: September 2013

Outlast is one of the horror games inspired by Silent Hill and Amnesia. This good game tells the story of a fictional detective that goes inside a creepy abandoned asylum resembling a real place called the Volterra Psychiatric Hospital at the best Sherlock Holmes style.

Things soon start to get a bit weird. Having been persecuted by an aggressive and deformed giant,  you’ll quickly notice you’re not alone. Witnessing the horrors of the electroshock therapy applied to hundreds of poor souls, you’ll uncover the mystery behind a cult hidden inside the walls of the asylum.

You probably end up mad like the rest of the lost souls or end up dying. The truth is that you won’t escape this place.

Most of the success of this game is due to the history that inspired the game. For example, a series of experiments was conducted on former patients without their knowledge back in the 1950s. They were subjected to hallucinogenic drugs and chemicals, as well as torture, hypnosis, and sensory deprivation.
