World of Horror sends you into a series of no-win scenarios, giving you the ability to choose your own nightmarish fate — or fight back against increasingly bizarre monsters.
This indie rogue-like features challenging turn-based battles, and a choose-your-own-adventure structure. Each of the spooky episodes has a few different endings, and they get more complex the further you go. This game is heavily inspired by Junji Ito, so most of the endings aren’t going to go so great for your first-person protagonist.
World of Horror is still in early-access, so there will be more scenarios when the game gets a full release later this year. This is every ending available in the game so far, and some of them are truly terrifying. Beware of spoilers ahead — and melty-faced monsters, death cults, and axe-wielding abominations.
