The Park game is a first-person horror game that is creepy in some ways but is completely unique in some other ways.
This game takes place in an incredibly creepy, run-down and frightening amusement park. You might be thinking there's nothing unique about it at all at this point, but here's the clincher -- this isn't a game about battling zombies or evading witches, it's about parenting.
The game's main character is a single mother who has lost her young son after closing time at an amusement park. The player then has to explore the creepy amusement park in such of her son. So what's unique about this game is that the goal is not to save the world from the un-dead, but to simply find your child.
