List some, I just started Outlast and it's been a while since a games made me jump.

Any horror game. To play one during the day is blasphemy. Of course, this is just as much due to the fact that they're so dark that a nightlight in your neighbor's house will blanket the screen in a sea of glare as it is due to mood and atmosphere.

Also, I'm really kicking myself for not grabbing the Outlast bundle for the PS4 when it was on sale for $12. I want it bad, but not quite "$30 bad".

Atmosfear, aka Nightmare just needs a TV and DVD player, it's a board game that uses the DVD to control your destiny, and to scare you when you least expect
Turn out the lights, just have enough light to see the board

Played this on Halloween with a few friends. There was a few times it made us all jump (especially when her dogs were in the kitchen and knocked something over half way through the game).


Resident Evil (PS1), The Darkness (PS3) and The Immortal (Genesis) are 3 that I have to play in the dark. I played them in daylight and just couldn't get into the mode. Once the lights go out and you are focusing on the games, it creeps you out. Biggest one that gets me everytime is the dog in Resident Evil that jumps through the window at the beginning of the game and you're not expecting it.
