Layers of Fear Video Game Series

On August 2 of the same year, the developers released the game's first story add-on - Inheritance - in which we play the role of the artist's daughter. The action of the title again takes us to a dark mansion, but this time the story of the unfortunate family is shown to us from the perspective of its youngest member. As in the original, the gameplay here is conducted from a first-person perspective and is based primarily on exploration and puzzle solving.

The next part of the series premiered in 2018. Unlike the first one, the action Layers of Fear 2 takes place on a derelict ship, and the theme of the title is no longer painting, but film art. So in this game, we take control of an actor, unknown to us by name, who has just received an engagement in a film being shot aboard a cruise liner. The role of narrator of the story here is played by Tony Todd, known, among others, for the title role in Candyman - a series launched in 1992 and based on a book by Clive Barker. Arkadiusz Reikowski, on the other hand, took care of the music composition. Despite improvements in certain aspects of gameplay, the second part of the Layers of Fear was no longer as popular as its predecessor.

At the end of 2021, Bloober Team studio released a teaser of the next installment of the series, whose main character was once again a nameless painter. This project was built on the basis of Unreal Engine 5 and, as in the other parts, its action is carried out from a first-person perspective.
