Survival horror is a subgenre of action-adventure video games heavily inspired by horror fiction. It is typically focused on the character’s survival as the game continuously tries to scare him/her with either graphics or sound effects. Although combat can be an integral part of the gameplay, the player is rarely in control of it (unlike in the typical action game). The reasons behind this are limited ammunition, poor vision, and various other obstructions preventing player's interaction with the in-game world. The player also needs to find certain items which then allow him/her to unlock the path to new areas and therefore make progress in the game. Survival horror makes use of many horror themes (e.g. dark maze-like environment, unexpected attacks from enemies, and dynamic music). The franchises like Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Alone in the Dark are considered to be the best survival horror video games of all time. Do you like to be afraid? Games Republic has survival horror games for every PC and console gamer.Recommended indie gamesAssassin’s Creed is a video game franchise built around action-adventure games created by Ubisoft. Its main plot revolves around a very old feud between the Assassins (who fight for peace with free will) and the Templars (who desire peace through control). Assassin's Creed mixes fictional characters with real-world historical events and figures. The franchise was born in 2007 with the release of the first game titled Assassin's Creed. The entire main series consists of nine games and was released on multiple platforms, including PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, and OS X. The Assassin's Creed games emphasize on freedom and use of surroundings. Running, climbing the sides of buildings, jumping between rooftops, sneaking, and fighting are all very well executed. This allows different approaches to mission objectives and different playstyles. The franchise was very positively acclaimed and is currently one of the most successful video game series.
