¿CWhat is the scariest video game you have played this year? The most common answers to this question probably cite games like Resident Evil, Silent Hill o Dead Space. However, and if we stick to mere science, the game that produces the most scares among its players is… Madison.
Madison It’s a first person horror game. released in July this year and developed by Bloodious Games. The game makes use of a very particular mechanic centered on the use of an instant photo camera Possessed by a demonic entity.
The game has been chosen by those responsible for The Science of Scare, a project founded in 2020 by the Broadband Choices page. In principle, the initiative focused on finding the most terrifying films of the year (these are the 2022 winnersand in the cinema section)but its success has made it give the leap to other media such as video games. In both cases, the procedure for choosing the scariest movies or video games is the same: measure your heart rate.
Those responsible for the project begin by preselecting the most terrifying video games of the last 30 years according to what critics say or comments on forums like r/HorrorGaming or Horror Games Community. Once a list of 45 candidates, recruit 200 volunteers to play those titles while wearing a heart monitor to track your heart rate during gameplay. The results of these measurements are studied in comparison with the average heart rate at rest, as well as in attention to the number of peaks that the game causes in the pulsations and their intensity.

Con todo, es una manera interesante de puntuar juegos de terror. El procedimiento ha dado como ganador precisamente a Madison, seguido del clásico de terror Alien: Isolation, Visage, y 5 Nights at Freddy’s. Sobre estas líneas tenéis la lista completa.
