Why scariest horror video game of all time? By Scienceso the “Science of Scare” project would be indie Madison. Science of Scare has been struggling to rank the scariest movies of all time, even video games now, since 2020.
But what criteria were followed to choose Madison as the scariest game ever? The game will be characterized by a “constant tension” and “numerous fears” that bring the heart rate of the players participating in the tests to an average of 97 BPM (beats per minute), 32 BPM higher than average. . rest average 65 BPM. Madison’s highest BPM peak was 131, higher than any other PC, Xbox, and PlayStation console game tested.
Creative Assembly’s Alien Isolation took second place, followed by another indie horror movie Visage. In fact, the big names in horror didn’t line up very well. The first Resident Evil of the lineup appears in the seventh, only sixth position. In the seventh episode we find Bloodborne, while the Silent Hill series only spawns in the fourteenth position with the fourth episode.
In short, some of the most famous games just can’t seem to really keep up with some indie games when it comes to horror.
Interestingly, if Hideo Kojima’s Silent Hills demo PT had been a full game, it would probably top the charts as it achieved the best results with an average of 99 BPM. Another reason to complain to Konami for his treacherous decision to cancel the game.
