okay so I just fell down this rabbit hole reading a Fearwoods review and now I'm having THOUGHTS about co-op horror games like the reviewer really gets into the psychology of it all?? how fear completely transforms when you're not alone but your teammates might not always have your back. sometimes they're your safety net and sometimes they're the reason you're about to die horribly what got me was this line about how "your teammates can be both your safety net and your biggest liability" because YES that's exactly the tension that makes co-op horror work when it works the whole review is this beautiful deep dive into not just what the game does but WHY it works psychologically. like how shared trauma bonds players together in ways that solo horror just can't achieve. and how the cooperative mechanics themselves become a source of tension rather than just comfort it's making me want to gather my friends for some proper scares but also terrified because I know exactly who would abandon me first when things get spooky anyway if you're into horror games or just fascinated by game design psychology this review is chef's kiss https://gamosy.com/reviews/fearwoods-review
