Survival horror games

Survival horror games are a sub-genre of action-adventure games. They focus on fear and attempt to scare the player via traditional horror fiction elements such as:

  • atmospherics, 
  • death,
  • the undead, 
  • blood and gore.

One crucial gameplay element in many of these games is the low quantity of ammunition, or number of breakable mêlée weapons.
