I feel like I've played a good amount of horror titles, and I find I don't really get scared much anymore.

What are some titles that scared you the most? I would love to hear your recommendations!

I don't much like scary games myself, but here's someone asking /r/HorrorGaming what their scariest games are:

EDIT: And yet somehow, despite not liking scary games, I've wound up owning some of these, like Darkwood, the Amnesia games, Clive Barker's Undying -- which I wouldn't call that scary -- Doom 3, Lone Survivor, Outlast, and Subnautica.

I've also played Clock Tower, which was on there.

I've yet to try darkwood, clive barkers undying, doom3, lone survivor, or clock tower. So I'll have to give those a try.

I'm specifically curious about darkwood because I'm unsure how a game in a top-down perspective could be scary. Same with Lone Survivor, actually. I'll have to see!
