Don’t Scream has landed.In the game the player’s goal is do precisely what its title states, because if you do scream when scared, the game ends.Inspired by ’90s found footage film horrors including The Blair Witch Project, Don’t Scream challenges the player to explore the fictional Pineview Forest for 18 minutes. However, time only passes when the player moves and through “dozens of dynamic scares” (no two playthroughs will be the same).Check out the trailer for the upcoming game below.What sets Don’t Scream apart from other found-footage horror games is that the player’s microphone must be calibrated to register any sounds that the player makes in real life.“A mere squeak or quiet gasp should be flagged as a scream,” said developer Joure & Joe, but the team of two developers clarified that speaking softly should not trigger the game to end, making it possible for streamers to play with their audience.Developed in Unreal Engine 5, Don’t Scream is expected to enter early access on Steam on October 27.
