Rot
A short psychological horror story about the effects that feelings have on the human mind, and the aftermath of them being left untreated #Psychological horror game #Exploration horror game #Psychological horror #Psychological #Horror #Haterd
Since the greatest fears that we have are geared towards the things that we do not know, it shouldn't come as a surprise when the most effective horror movies, TV shows and games are the ones that revolve around the horrors of what a disturbed mind can imagine. Since a lot of bad feelings and emotional breakups happen as a consequence of our daily lives, a lot of effort is put into trying to understand how certain key moments can impact us in the long run. Such would be the case with Rot, a short psychological horror story about obsession, rejection and self-hatred.
One way to put you better into the mindset of the main character is to make the visuals go a certain direction, as well as use real-life elements to make everything seem even more relatable. As such, the game makes use of transformative, pixelated renditions of existed copyrighted artworks. This not only makes the game look all the more terrifying, but it also gives it a retro look, which is great considering that the horror genre practically exploded in the 80s and 90s, and so did video games.
You enter the house of a couple named Emma and Justin, and you explore the seemingly harmless apartment, going through their letters and seeing how their relationship kicked off. Suddenly, the entire house goes haywire and you are treated with floating pieces of furniture, doors and chairs moving and shacking as if they were glitched, distorted camera angles and walls filled with hateful texts that look as if they were written with blood.
Rot probably gets its namesake from the fact that it depicts the downwards spiraling of the human psyche when it is faced with rejection and betrayal, and this game gets all of those elements just about right.
