What is Dread X Collection 2?
This single-player collection contains 12 short horror games with different visual styles and ways to play, including first-person segments. You start locked in a room with a TV, then find keys and solve puzzles to unlock games stored on videotapes. You can skip the interactive hub and select the games directly.

- +you enjoy solving puzzles between separate games
- +you seek Lovecraftian and psychological horror
