There are only so many horror games that are as entertaining as they are spooky. A new co-op horror title called Content Warning from Landfall, the developer behind titles such as Knightfall and Totally Accurate Battlegrounds, among others has launched on Steam, and it’s one of the most unique horror games players can find right now.
The game has been a smash hit, with thousands of players jumping in to try it out, and it’s all thanks to one twist that has made the game the talk of the town. The Lethal Company-style game can make players famous if they play their cards right, and it’s also currently free to whoever wants to grab it, but you need to hurry as it will go paid soon.
Content Warning Can Make Players Go Viral
Content Warning is a co-op horror title on Steam where players play as filmmakers who go to a new planet. Players have to record their friends in a spooky situation, upload the recording to a platform called “SpookTube,” and hope that the footage goes viral.
The game supports 2-4 player co-op, and players can challenge their friends to explore new locations to capture frightening things for views. Players have three inventory slots, four flashlights, and a camera. They can use a flashlight to go out in the dark and a camera to capture their friends.
Once they capture it, they have to try to get to safety before something happens to them, share the video online, and wait for views to pile up. It is important to remember that players can only capture a limited amount of video, so make sure it’s really scary. If players get good views, they can get upgrades to make the videos better, meaning more views.
Content Warning is infinitely replayable, as a single run lasts for three days and has several variations. If players are successful in getting views, they can continue to live the SpookTube famous life or “die trying,” as the tagline of the game reads.
Content Warning Is Massively Popular Right Now
Content Warning has been loved by the players who have played it so far, and the number of players is increasing constantly. The game has received “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews on Steam, with nearly eight thousand reviews. A player called the game Lethal Company with “Landfall’s silly and amazing physics.”
