Our take on Score the Fear
The defining structure is a scare-rating loop: find Yu-kun five times, assign his performance one to three stars, and let the early scores affect the final day.
What is Score the Fear?
Score the Fear is a 3D adventure game about exploring rooms and finding Yu-kun, a ghost boy who wants to become an evil spirit.
After finding him five times, players rate his scares from one to three stars, ending the day. The game describes improved scare skills on the second day, while the third day's outcome depends on the ratings from the first two days. The story can reach six ending types plus an additional outcome. Each playthrough lasts 5–15 minutes, with total play time of about 60 minutes. Streaming and video posting are permitted under stated conditions, but the special version unlocked after collecting all endings cannot be posted online.
