Tower 22 - Horror ( INDIE )

Neil79 · 30 Sep 2011 at 06:29

Tower22 is an upcoming horror survival game that focuses on delivering a gripping story and chilling atmosphere, set in the upper levels of an apartment somewhere in the Soviet Union. It's been in development for quite a while, although we're not really sure how much work has went into it since the video above made its appearance on the internet late last year.

In Tower 22 you play as Robert, a caretaker who lives in a seemingly-abandoned apartment building. You receive instructions from your supervisor from time to time, but lately he's been absent and there are no apartment occupants to speak with as well. Sensing something strange, Robert must explore the building to figure out what's going on and how he's to escape from this nightmarish place.

Out Soon

Well, that looks hellish! Kinda reminiscent of Silent Hill. But I couldn't get through Amnesia so I doubt I'd get through this either. I'll definitely watch the Lets Plays after release though!

Cant help but think all that build up ended up disapointing and isnt that woman at the end the fat bird sat on a Subaru on the famous internet picture!?

Looks 'disturbing' and something that I'd like to play, though with memories of Amnesia fresh in mind, I'd have to pluck up the courage first.

Another winner I'd never have heard of if not for Neil.

I'll be ****ing myself to this before too long I don't doubt.

Does anybody else find these sorts of games kinda... boring? I played Penumbra: Black Plague for a few hours before getting bored, then played Amnesia for maybe 2 hours before getting bored... the tedious puzzles and menial tasks just did my head in, there was nothing making me want to continue playing.

Yeah they're scary and have great sound & atmosphere and whatnot, but they're not 'fun'.

Never been bored with Penumbra or Amnesia, I just haven't got the balls to get very far on them

.

I was reading about this one earlier on RPS, looks quite promising. The bed sheet bit was good.

Undoubtedly. Many other people find them fun. It's almost as if we're all different, isn't it?

Thanks, will keep an eye out for this.

Looks good. May play it if I ever pluck up the courage to finish Silent Hill 5 and Amnesia. I'm still emotionally scarred from Silent Hill 2 which I played from start to finish ati night in a room with no curtains during a thunderstorm out in the countryside. :eek:
