The game will be played from a first-person view, but the creators have stated that they have worked on a new approach to the horror genre. Lead programmer over at RG Crew, Piotr Rycąbel had this to say,
Anthology of Fear: Prologue allows you to check out part of the first story for free. Each of the three stories will be radically different from the others. This means both differences in terms of mood and location, but also main themes and the gameplay itself. Fear is not unambiguous, it can have very different faces, which Anthology of Fear will clearly demonstrate. There is no place for weariness here, and the whole xperience will be very diverse.
This is our original and quite broad take on the genre. Anthology of Fear is a unique project that will provide players with different experiences. We are focusing on ambiguity and diversity. The game should appeal to the vast majority of horror fans
The prologue of the game will take you to the first part of the story set in the picturesque mountain regions. The story is set in modern times, and the main themes concern alienation and the creative act. The last part of the game will be focused on the theme of memories and take place in an indefinite space and time.
Here are the main features according to the developers:
- three unique stories;
- multidimensional fear;
- ambiguous reality;
- diverse gameplay;
- stylish graphics;
- original soundtrack.
