DREAD X COLLECTION II: Lovecraftian Mythology Takes Over in this 2nd Chapter of the Horror Anthology
Updated: May 18, 2021
Dread X Collection II is an anthological horror collection produced by Dread XP and collaborators (Vidas Games, John Szymanski, Akabaka and others) and released on the Steam platform on August 21, 2020. This collection is the second production in the franchise and the first to present a macro story that unfolds in 12 games produced in 10 days. Here you find yourself inside a house of horror, not knowing why they have imprisoned you, except for a voice that sometimes talks to you. This voice says that you need to analyze a total of 12 VHS tapes, which are opened by 12 keys scattered throughout the house. Your role here is to investigate the house and its surroundings, analyze the tapes and find a way to escape from your kidnappers.
This collection follows the same steps as the first edition, but it is here where I see that there is a greater effort, since it is here where we see the emergence of macrohistory, already tested in the fourth chapter (The Hunt). In addition, this is also where we see that there is a greater definition of the theme adopted, unlike the first chapter, where it was somewhat simple, in my view. The theme of this edition is focused (or almost) on all the mythology produced by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. Yes, in this edition you interact with the most varied elements of the works of cosmic horror, such as mentions of the Necronomicon, Eldritchs, Cthulhu, among others.
Like the first chapter, this one presents varied forms of gameplay, ranging from first-person shooting to dating sims. Undoubtedly, it is a group that, along with the Haunted PS1 community, has been in the crosshairs of this channel, so much care that both have in presenting their games. You can check the gameplays for each game in this edition, in addition to buying the collection, if you are interested, in the links below:
