About
You find yourself locked in a small room illuminated only by the hazy glow of a single TV. Around you are a collection of tapes, trapped within steel coffins. A strange statue looms in the shadows. An unknown voice breaks the silence. It tells you to check the top of the VCR for a key. You pick it up. You use it to unlock one of the metallic cases. Inside is a tape. You pop the tape into the VCR. Can you survive what happens next?
The Dread X Collection 2 follows in the footsteps of the first Dread X Collection. This time we've gathered 12 incredible indie devs and given them just 10 days to realize all new visions of terror. The inspiration this time around was LOVECRAFTING. Does that mean all Lovecraft monsters? Does that mean a crafting game? Does it mean crafting love in a romantic visual novel? You'll just have to play to find out.
Step into a world of darkness and discover the secrets you didn't know were right beneath the surface. Get ready to explore 12 horror games made in 10 days that lead up to a narrative experience you didn't expect in Dread X Collection 2. Find the tapes and unlock the mystery inside.

Really cool that a hub world was introduced for the sequel. Anyways, The games were pretty good for what they were. The Diving bell was definitely my number one game from this collection. However, worst game for me was the thing in the lake. Not because of horror, but because of the rage i had while playing. It's had the fastest serial killer i have ever seen. Game felt unfair at times. Sucker for love was a unique spin on a dating sim, Dating female cthulhu was...Intresting for sure. (Don't let twitter artist find her) Overall, the collection was good. but did have a few stinkers in it. 7/10 (also if you type ''lionel.exe" in Solipsis, you get a surprise!)
Absolutely fell in love with it. The Concept, execution, all of it. Hub area and its puzzles are all great. Games are decent fun.

Dans la continuité de Dread X Collection, ce deuxième titre propose une sélection de jeux encore plus grande et toujours avec cette variété de gameplay qui m'a fait apprécier l'opus précédent. De plus, on a ici un hub plus travaillé que le miroir auquel on avait droit. J'aime beaucoup le principe de résolution d'énigmes afin de pouvoir débloquer le jeu de notre choix. C'est plutôt simple mais franchement réussi. Les jeux sont à nouveau inégaux en qualité mais je ne me suis pour autant jamais lassé. Il ne faut pas non plus oublier que les développeurs ont eu un délai de 10 jours ce qui force le respect quand on voit le résultat final.
I wish some of the included games were expanded upon as standalones.
While I liked a good few from the first collection I do think for the most part this is a better package, simply has more interesting smaller games on top of a hub world main menu to sink your teeth into. Some could be better designed sure but it was still largely positive with games like Sucker For Love, To The End Of Days, Squirrel Stapler and Solipsis.
os melhores dessa coletânea são, ironicamente, o dating sim com o cthulhu, o de decifrar a linguagem dos horrores cósmicos pra salvar a esposa e o doom-like que também envolve seres de outro mundo, de resto, um ou outro tem uma ideia bacana, mas com uma execução muito fraquinha, com alguns jogos da primeira coletânea ganhando de lavada nesses novos.
It's a fine collection, but definitely not as good as Dread X Collection 4: The Hunt.
esse jogo tem squirrel stepler nele, que eh um lixo, ent nao recomendo
A pretty fun little collection. A bit more complete than the first but instead of all the games just being alright, this one really has some high highs and some low lows. 12. The Toy Shop - Had some bits that were cool but was a bit drawn out and jank for what it was. 11. To The End of Days - Just wasn't a huge fan of this one, wish I had something a bit more constructive to say. 10. Another Late Night - Dug the narrative they were trying to do but there's just zero gameplay. I am a desktop simulator sucker tho, so that got it some bonus points. 9. The Diving Bell - Again, really like the atmosphere and narrative but the gameplay is walking back and forth and mashing your keyboard. 8. The Thing In The Lake - Starts to feel more like a chore than anything once you crack the gimmicks for each enemy. Love the art style though, and love World of Horror. 7. Undiscovered - Like the vibe but the camera actually made me nauseous. Fix that and we're golden. 6. Touched By An Outer God - Decent gameplay loop that I could see going way further with some more enemy types and varied maps. 5. Charlotte's Exile - Would for sure play a longer full release of this. Lost some points because one jump scare was so loud I thought I was going to lose my hearing forever. 4. Arcadletra - Throws some really good scares at you over and over again. Was surprised with just how much I ended up liking this one. 3. Solipsis - Incredibly short, but made by David Mullins. Need I say more? 2. Squirrel Stapler - Pretty unnerving game that keeps building on itself with new mechanics to make you forget that god is in fact coming. 1. Sucker For Love - I liked this one :)
the thing in the lake, I HATE YOU
