MAERE 2: Hypnagogia is the ghostly sequel to the original Halloween game about catching Z's in a haunting chamber. In MAERE 2: Hypnagogia, I incorporated feedback from the first game and increased the creepiness level.
Each game session delivers new eerie events, increasing suspense and horror as players navigate the haunted area. The goal remains: sleep in the otherworldly pandemonium. With more frightening aspects and unexpected situations, sleeping peacefully becomes difficult.
MAERE 2: Hypnagogia requires fear management to survive until sunrise. The game ingeniously replicates terror with a meter that rises as ghosts or unsettling noises appear. High terror levels make sleep difficult, turning every shadow into a nightmare. Players must balance closing their eyes to reduce terror with using the A and D keys to check the room for safety. In this game, ghosts are less noticeable when ignored, which plays into the unique mechanics of terror and perception that push the player to master their own fright.
MAERE 2: Hypnagogia challenges players with its unique mix of strategy and psychological horror. So, collect your bravery and try to survive the night! If you dare, sweet dreams!
Have fun and good luck!
