About
From the creators of indie horror hits Massacre at the Mirage, Suffer the Night, and Terror at Oakheart, comes Flesh Made Fear, the ultimate survival horror experience by Tainted Pact Games.
Descend into a world of horrifying experiments and occult rituals where every step plunges you deeper into madness. Featuring the survival mechanics that define the genre, reimagined with heart-stopping innovations, this game invites you to confront your fears like never before.
Will you face the nightmare? Or will the nightmare consume you?
Classic Horror, Reimagined
Flesh Made Fear pays homage to the PSX-era survival horror that defined a generation. Drawing inspiration from the original Resident Evil trilogy, it masterfully blends intricate puzzles, heart-pounding combat, and a dread-filled atmosphere. But this isn’t just a nostalgic throwback—it’s a bold evolution. Modernized controls, immersive cinematics, and a gripping story will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last moment.
Take on the role of an elite operative in the Reaper Intervention Platoon (R.I.P.), a covert task force deployed to neutralize Victor “The Dripper” Ripper—a brilliant but deranged former CIA agent. His sinister experiments have turned a desolate backwater town into a nightmare filled with grotesque monsters and mind-controlled thralls.
Your mission is clear: eliminate Ripper, unravel his chilling secrets, and survive the horrors lurking in his mansion-turned-laboratory.
Are you ready to step into the darkness?
