I thought it would just be another horror escape game. Pick up some keys, avoid jump scares, and get out. Simple. But Evil Granny: City Terror wastes no time making it clear - you're not alone, and you're definitely not welcome. You spawn in the middle of an eerie, silent city, surrounded by buildings that look like they haven't been lived in for years. The game tells you to find eight keys. That's it. No map, no instructions, no tutorials. Just you, the darkness, and the knowledge that something called "Evil Granny" is roaming the streets. She's not alone, either - her creepy puppets are patrolling with her. It's one of those games where the fear sets in before anything even happens. The kind of silence that makes you turn your volume down, not up. The gameplay drops you into a first-person scavenger hunt wrapped in anxiety. You creep through alleys, parking garages, stairwells - every corner feels like a trap. Sometimes the keys are just lying around, and other times you have to go into pitch-black rooms, hoping nothing's inside. But of course, something usually is. Granny doesn't sprint at you. She floats in a slow, jerky way that somehow makes it worse. You'll catch a glimpse of her out of the corner of your screen, and before you can even turn, a puppet cuts you off. They don't follow you predictably either - they feel like they're playing hide-and-seek with murder in mind. And because there's no way to fight back, your only option is to run and hope you remember which door wasn't locked. You might get away. You might not. That tension never goes away. What makes Evil Granny: City Terror work so well is that it commits to its tone. It doesn't try to be clever or ironic - it just puts you in a nightmare and dares you to move. The visuals are low-fi but surprisingly effective. Streetlights flicker, shadows stretch across windows, and empty spaces feel like they're breathing. The more keys you collect, the more paranoid you get. Where is she now? Can I make it across that plaza in time? The game never answers - it just pushes you deeper. There's something genuinely unnerving about a horror game that doesn't need gore or screams to scare you. Just silence, distance, and the quiet feeling that you're being hunted. If you like horror that's more about mood and dread than action, Evil Granny: City Terror is a simple but effective little nightmare that lingers longer than you'd expect.
