A staple in horror gaming. Got an ARG now too.

What can i say about IMSCARED... Well, it's a masterpiece of it's kind. I still remember downloading the game from Gamejolt when i was a kid, being terrified of it so much, that i couldn't complete the game on my own.

As of today, i see that even with crucial and massive changes to the game, it still shines with it's polished gameplay and on point scares when you actually expect it, has made me jump and squeel multiple times. but one thing this game has suffered is.. it's forgotten. You might say "But XR, wasn't the game so popular Markimoo played it?", and you will be correct, but also wrong. The version he played was 2012 version of the first release to Gamejolt and 2016 version of the steam release, giving it a slight hope for the game's revival... but rolls around 2022 version, adding a secret and a hint of revival. No popular soul actually found it. and as 2024 rolled in, only 8-BitRyan (as far as i know of popular English Youtubers) found the game, because of new popularity of KinitoPet (i am not bashing at Kinito, the devs did a great job, i even 100% their game too, as well as this one). But in my eyes the game is forgotten. i still remember how flodded youtube was when IMSCARED was first released, Jacksepticeye covered it, Mark did, and many more. Right now? it's dead silence even after it's "game going into steam updates to tell you about an event that gonna happen in it" type intrigue. I found it, and i loved to see the whole game, for one last time.

Ivan, if you ever read this, you are a gem developer that many creators looked up to (Good example would be a creator XerStudios that made "My place" and "A Dark Place" and is still developing a sequel.). You are one heck of a imaginator when it comes to games, and i would be happy to see what's next there is to see as "YourMadnessWorks".

oh, and for the new reader? remember this. It always lies, but names are the only truths it tells. You'll get the message.

A very unique and clever horror game. I was never a pixel fan but I really enjoyed my time with the game. Alot of focus on puzzles and clever solutions.
