Beyond the Curtain | Full Game Walkthrough | No Commentary
57I have played many indie horror games on this channel, but I never heard of the Dread X Collections. There are already 5 out there and the concept is brilliant! It is a package that is sold which contains multiple small horror games made by both starting and experienced indie developers. They range from many different genres and gameplay styles and offer something for everyone. In the most recent Dread X Collection the game that we are going to play next is Beyond the Curtain.
Beyond the Curtain is very different from the game Hunsvotti which we played before. This is the genius of the Dread X Collection. Beyond the Curtain is much more of a walking and visual experience that leans on creepy imagery and atmosphere rather than jumpscares. The tension in this game is absolutely fantastic and the scary vibe just keeps on climbing and climbing until it almost becomes unbearable. The design of the puppets is terrifying and you always think you see some movement or one of them twitching in the corner of your eye. In terms of gameplay it is a bit light, but I think this is a great example of how a creator can still make an experience enjoyable or memorable by having the atmosphere being so impressive. There have been walking simulator type horror games in the past that are a bit bland because they are light on both gameplay but also the scary atmosphere. Beyond the Curtain definitely delivers on the scary atmosphere and cannot wait to see what is next from this developer!
