Burg Game Studio released 'If You Get Scared, You Lose' for Windows via Steam on June 11. The game is an 8-like anomaly-hunting horror set in Japanese schools and shrines. It uses microphone input: if the player screams, they restart. The developer previously made 'Satori' and 'Gion Corridor,' both rated very positive on Steam.
Burg Game Studio, the solo developer behind the multi-ending horror game 'Satori' and the exploration horror 'Gion Corridor,' released their third title on June 11. 'If You Get Scared, You Lose' is an 8-like game where players search for 40 types of anomalies in Japanese-style environments like schools and shrines. The game recommends microphone input: a loud scream sends the player back to the start. The anomalies include both jump scares and gag scenes. The game costs 790 yen on Steam, with a launch discount to 663 yen through June 25.
