    If what you are looking for is a short (it lasts around two hours) and terrifying experience, that makes you think and leaves you with an upset stomach thanks to a quite unexpected ending, The Witch's House MV is a very good option. A classic that, without being an outstanding game, holds up quite well.

    I don’t have too many complaints about The Witch’s House MV. Yes, the game is short, and sure, the story is lacking. But when this game is on point, it’s really on point. The Witch’s House MV expertly utilizes its creepy atmosphere, unsettling sound effects, and delightful jump scares to ensure at least a few moments of increased adrenaline. While I wish the game was longer, there is a decent amount of replayability, with the newly added difficulty mode offering different puzzle solutions and an ending you’ll definitely want to obtain. For such a short and simple game, it was certainly a memorable experience.
