Setting off my shell shock here! Remember making sure the speakers were 100% for the siblings.

Oh boy, my cousin did this one to me, I ended up spitting my food in his face and smacking him with a sandwich, repeatedly, while screaming.

Jumpscare when you get to the end, it's a maze game where you have to not hit the walls

Just in case if you are serious, don't do that. It will traumatize them for years and you will have to deal with it. I would argue it is even worse than physical abuse.

Agreed. There enough horrible bullshit scaring children, you don't have to purposefully fucking do it. Sadists.

PARENTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE PLACE.

This happened to me as a kid. Must have been about 8 or 9. Was spending a late night with dad browsing the internet. Went down a rabbit hole watching optical illusions on some random website.

One illusion was to stare at a painting in a photo. Dad got bored and looked away. As he does that a face pops up on the screen and screams. Everything has been silent until then. The speakers were on full blast.

Now have a thing for suspense and jumpscares to the point i have to google jump scares in a movie so im prepared before i watch it

Ya nah. My siblings made me play this, and showed me the video of the car jumpscare (yk what I mean) I couldn’t sleep alone for a good couple years

I'm concerned that some horror game devs actually think jumpscares are good horror though

ArtmoneyAbuser t1_j2faa7p wrote

If you are relying on jumpscares that means the game is garbage. That's why Amnesia is a masterpiece and fnaf is trash.

Outlast was good. It constantly kept you on edge waiting only for nothing to happen most of the time.

This is just the exact same kind of jumpscare horror as five nights at Freddy’s when you think about it

I don't know what your idea of "kids today" is, I am a Gen Z child, barely into puberty, and I know damn well what this thing is

This was actually really easy. You just need to tab out to another program, drag it's window over the game, and then navigate the cursor over the other window directly onto the goal square. Click there to resume the game and instantly win.

Alternatively, I think, just tapping it on a touchscreen will also work these days.

djv96 t1_j2f7msb wrote

Or just right click and move the cursor there, hover events don’t trigger with the context menu open!

I remember the first time I saw this it was when a friends older brother tried to trick. He was sorely disappointed when I had no reaction to it.

I didn't bother doing it the right way. I right clicked, and moved my mouse outside of the maze into the end zone without going through the maze. So when I first saw it I thought I was getting punished for cheating.
