[Shawn Zipay]

A new psychological horror game has hit Steam today. Red Limb Studio released Rise of Insanity via Steam to some rather positive initial user reviews. Both Windows users and Linux users can scare themselves for just $9.99 (USD) plus a special 10% discount during this launch window.

And if you really want to scare the pants off of yourself, you can play through this using your VR headset of choice.

Take on the role of Stephen Dowell, a Doctor of Psychology who will explore the darkest recesses of the human mind to find the truth behind the tragedy that has befallen his family. Immerse yourself in the suffocating atmosphere of Rise of Insanity in standard full-screen mode or enjoy Virtual Reality on Oculus Rift, Htc Vive and Gear VR.

“For Rise of Insanity we drew inspiration from classic psychological horror masterpieces such as The Shining, The Exorcist and Silent Hill,” says Krzysztof Sopata of Red Limb Studio. “The human mind can really be a container of horrors when we let our fears and monsters linger inside. In this game we also wanted to represent mental illness in some original ways, and let you literally ‘fly’ through the hidden paths of consciousness."
