True Fear: A Dream to Reality

Skeptical that a point & click adventure can be compelling or scary? How could a 2D game, where you cannot die, even qualify as “horror”? You can trust me!

Our dream when we started Goblinz 20 years ago was to create games that we loved as players. However, lacking funds or contacts we quickly got stuck making what was known as “casual games”. Finally, ten years ago, as the money was running dry and, realizing that this was probably going to be our last project, we decided to make it count – finally make something that we ourselves would enjoy playing! We finally gave the presentation after I sold my car, borrowed money from relatives and presented it. Real FearSend an email to our casual publisher.

It was not a good reaction! We were told that casual gamers do not like “complex stories” or horror. It was a problem that testers were heard shouting while they played the game. On the eve of the launch several producers gathered around me and asked me whether we wanted to make a “good game” or a “game that sells”. Armed with all the confidence of the captain of a sinking ship, I replied “both” and they proceeded to explain to me how this was “not an option”. What they didn’t know was that at that point we had no choice – we were basically bankrupt.

Twenty-four hours later, with the first numbers coming in, the same people were asking me “how did we do it” – the game went on to be one of the best-selling HOPAs to date.

Now, ten years and over 120,000 positive reviews later I can confidently say – if you enjoy horror and like a compelling story, then give our free demo a try! Maybe the game won’t be for you, but maybe, like many of those reviewers, you’ll be surprised to find a compelling horror game where you least expected it!

GamesRadar True Fear 1Number 3 in the Top Ten Best HOPA Games List:

“Goblinz has managed to craft a deeply unsettling, impressively scream-worthy experience with True Fear: Forsaken Souls – a title that delivers more frights than some of the most expensive horror games out there.“

Our independence is something we take great pride in. We release a new game approximately every three to five year. We also make sure that our games stay updated – whether it would be the support for the wider new monitors or following feedback from players. The Xbox gamepad controls were adjusted to our liking and all bonuses materials have been compiled. True Fear: Forsaken Souls Part 1 S!|S!
