Infanticide

About

You wander through a quiet Japanese town where every shadow feels off. Infanticide trades jump scares for creeping unease letting you explore decaying neighborhoods and flickering streetlights. Movement is slow and deliberate with no combat or dialogue just the sound of your footsteps and distant whispers. The story unfolds through scattered documents and half-remembered fragments forcing you to piece together why this place feels like a mistake. Released in 2020 for PC the game leans into minimalist horror design. Its strength lies in atmosphere over action with 87% of players on Steam noting the tension lingers long after closing the window. The lack of clear explanations divides some audiences but fans praise its quiet dread and unsettling use of space. Shorter than most horror games it packs a slow-burn chill ideal for late nights and empty rooms.
