Our take on FREAKOUT
A distinctive shift happens when a survivor dies: that player returns as a goat and can still assist the others by finding items or distracting the monster.
What is FREAKOUT?
FREAKOUT is a survival horror game set in a school, playable alone or online with up to 4 players.
Search for confiscated belongings while avoiding the possessed principal and his dog, and investigate the events at the school by finding clues and collecting items. Players can use positional voice chat, join friends, or look for others through a server browser. Releasing the goats triggers an enraged phase in which the principal can kill survivors. A survivor who dies returns as a goat and can assist remaining players by finding items or distracting the monster. Each match randomizes perks, escape points, roles, and item locations. The game includes a warning about flashing lights and possible photosensitivity.
