The co-op has a much bigger focus on action than the other modes.
The third mode is a co-op campaign where up to four players can team up as Police Officers trying to find Simon. While short, the Doctor mode is also significantly harder than the main storyline. The game has three modes, the first being the main story line following Simon.Ĭompleting that unlocks the "Doctor Mode" where one gets to play as the Doctor character from the main story. Ammo and firearms are also fairly rare, and the player will probably end up using more melee weapons than firearms throughout the story, similar to the Silent Hill games. The player has limited inventory space, must use morphine syringes to regenerate health, can only save via the use of a tape recorder (on Nightmare difficulty one must have a tape that can only be used five times in order to save, somewhat similar to the use of typewriters and ink ribbons in the earlier Resident Evil games). The following weapons appear in the video game Cry of Fear:Ĭry of Fear is a survival horror game and not a straight up shooter. The original mod is available on ModDB and the standalone game is available on Steam. Cry of Fear also includes a deep plot whose themes are similar to aforementioned Silent Hill and movies such as Jacob's Ladder, relying heavily on symbolism. While Afraid of Monsters plays more like a shooter, Cry of Fear plays more slowly with a focus on survival more like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. Cry of Fear includes cutscenes, voice acting, an inventory system, and utilizes advanced graphical techniques. Throughout the night, he continues to question his sanity as he continues his way home.Ĭry of Fear is significantly more complex than Team Psykskallar's previous game, Afraid of Monsters. With only his phone and a pocket-knife, he makes his way through the unnamed city (based off locations in Stockholm, Sweden) and encounters hallucinations and monsters. The game follows teenage protagonist Simon Henriksson as he wakes up in an alley after being the victim of a hit and run. After being submitted to Steam Greenlight, it was accepted for a release on Steam and in 2013 was publicly released as a standalone game. Development for the mod started in 2008 and after four troubled years of development, it released on popular modding site ModDB as a Half-Life mod in 2012. Unlike their previous game, Afraid of Monsters, Cry of Fear was built completely from scratch and doesn't share any assets with Half-Life. Cry of Fear runs on the GoldSrc (or GoldSource) engine, which is a heavily modified version of the Quake engine that was made for and powered Half-Life. Cry of Fear is a standalone Half-Life mod developed by the independent game studio Team Psykskallar (Psykskallar is Swedish and can be roughly translated as "psychoheads"), the same studio behind the game Afraid of Monsters.
