Steam Store description

Cry of Fear is a psychological single-player and co-op horror game set in a deserted town filled with horrific creatures and nightmarish delusions. You play as a young man desperately searching for answers in the cold Scandinavian night, finding his way through the city as he slowly descends into madness. With a strong emphasis on cinematic experience, immersion and lateral thinking, players will be taken on a nightmare rollercoaster-ride through the grim streets of Fäversholm and beyond. Not everything is as it seems... Cry of Fear originally started out as a Half-Life 1 modification, set in the same vein as the classic survival horror games of old. 4 years in the making and picking up several modding awards on the way, it is now a free, standalone game for anyone to enjoy. Beware though, it's not for the faint of heart. Key Features: Huge single-player campaign with over 8 hours of gameplay Multiple endings and over 20 different unlockables to keep you playing Full length co-op campaign with up to 4 players Strong modding support with 12 custom campaigns and examples included, with requests from modding community listened to and implemented Terrifying and unforgettable atmosphere 24 different and unique weapons to choose from Unlockable extra campaign after beating single-player Original soundtrack comprises over 5 hours of haunting, melodic music
