Don't Scream is an upcoming indie survival horror game. The game became popular when it released for early access on 27 October 2023.[1]
Gameplay
Don't Scream is 18 minutes long; time only moves in the game when the player moves.[2] The game is set in a forest in 1993, near the site of what appears to be a plane crash. The game is played from the perspective of a camcorder, which the protagonist is assumed to be carrying.[3] The player can choose different paths which will lead to either a homestead, a farm, a mini-mart, or a cemetery. There are random encounters of ghostly spirits that haunt the forest who will attempt to scare the player. The player character dies if they scream or make a loud noise; the game allows this mechanic to function by accessing players' microphones, with their consent.[4][5] Players can restart when they die.[6]
