Augmented Fear

The release date for Augmented Fear is July 28, 2026, on PC. This indie title merges cyberpunk aesthetics with a horror-focused puzzle structure, dropping you into a hostile district where survival depends on navigating a world of twisted metal and aggressive creatures. You are tasked with finding one of three hidden exits in an environment where rooms and objects are randomly generated for every run.

The standout mechanic is the use of augmented reality to reveal hidden layers of the environment, forcing you to toggle your vision to solve riddles and track monster behaviors. With no hand-holding and adjustable jumpscare intensity, the focus stays on experimentation and environmental storytelling through item combination. Success relies on your ability to master specific enemy mechanics while managing the stress of a perma-death loop that reveals more of the narrative with each failure.

Pick this up if you want a high-stakes puzzle experience that rewards observation over raw action.
