Aside from doing your job though, there are plenty of fun hidden secrets and discoveries out there in the wilderness for you to find.Although the game has a rather small cast of characters, you can actually build relationships with them as you play the game.

Outlast
Outlast is an intensely-terrifying, first-person survival horror game where you play the inquisitive investigative journalist Miles Upshur who taking a look at the shady Mount Massive Asylum that was recently reopened by the equally shifty Murkoff Corporation. The asylum has been operating in secrecy and you are there to find out why! Of course, when the truth is revealed to you... you might think twice about your eagerness to uncover it in the first place.Being a story-driven game, you can expect excellent narrative, apt sound effects and immersive graphics to help you push the story along. Unlike some horror games, you can't fight in this game - you are merely a journalist, after all. Thus, its gameplay is rather stealth-based with some elements of parkour. So, you'll need to rely on your awareness and instinct to decide when you'll need to hide and when to simply run for your life. Naturally, you wouldn't want to be caught by any of the asylum's terrifying, criminally-insane patients.
If you're looking for a game to scare the hell out of you before even Halloween comes around, Outlast is the perfect game to do that. Be sure to be prepared for a truly terrifying scare and keep the young uns far away.
