What is Ten Bells?
This first-person, single-player horror game sends you through an English pub repeatedly to check for changes. You turn back when you spot an anomaly and move forward when you do not, avoiding traps and inhabitants while collecting objects that reveal the pub's ghostly past.
For you if...
- +you enjoy spotting changes in familiar rooms
- +you want jump scares alongside an environmental mystery
- +you prefer short, solo horror games
Not for you if...
- −you dislike repeatedly checking the same space for changes
- −you prefer horror without jump scares or sudden threats
