According to what I've heard, Amnesia is most likely the scariest video game... ever. I haven't been much of a fan of survival horror video games (I'm not even frightened of Fatal Frame, and that's supposed to be ridiculously scary), but for some reason I've fallen in love with this one:
Basically, the whole idea is that you have no weapons whatsoever, and the only thing that you can survive on is lantern oil and tinderboxes. The character you are playing is afraid of the dark, and prolonged exposure to the darkness will cause him to go insane through hearing imaginary voices, seeing hallucinations, and eventually ends up crawling on the ground. And yes, there are monsters. Hence, if they see you, your only option is to run like hell (and hide).
