Released last month, “Don’t Be Afraid” is still warmly reviewed by players. The game was one of the best rated on Steam 3D indie psychological horrors!
Additionally, you can check out our prologue game “Don’t Be Afraid - The First Toy” which has been released as a free teaser and serves as a great introduction to the universe. Both our games scored staggeringly positive reviews on Steam:
Don't Be Afraid - 88%
Hydra Games did a great job of creating an immersive world for you to explore with memorable characters. ~TechRaptor
The story is unsettling for what it is, entering the crazed kidnapper... ~DaRevieweD
Somewhat risky story, playing as a young, kidnapped child in a game of torture. ~Devils in the Detail
