10 Tales of Terror from 10 Twisted Minds. Made in only 7 Sleepless Nights. The Dread X Collection is a series of small games created by some of the most talented indie devs around, all with the same mission: create the P.T. for the horror project of their dreams.
## About This Game
Horror, at its core, is primal. You don’t need a multi-million dollar design
budget or advanced realtime bullet physics to make something scary. You just
have to have an idea that is raw, and the honesty to execute it.
P.T. perfectly illustrates this point. It takes place entirely in one
hallway. It didn’t have complicated AI. There weren’t a dozen characters to
design and model. Hell, there weren’t even that many scares. And it was
absolutely terrifying. It distilled the concepts of the ill-fated Silent
Hills into a dense moment of terror. It was its own compact experience, and a
glimpse into something much more.
Many games have tried to imitate P.T. in content. A million spooky hallways
with a trillion collectible notes. Some of these are fantastic. But what about
that concept? To distill your dream project into something condensed, raw, and
real?
That was the question posed to 10 brilliant creators. Make a P.T. for the
horror project of your dreams. Both a game on its own, and a window into a
much larger world. Make it raw. Make it real. Make it a reflection of your own
fears. Make it in just 7 days.
And they did. This is the Dread X Collection .
