Granny Game is a survival horror game that proves you don’t need complex graphics or heavy storytelling to create real tension. The core gameplay revolves around stealth, sound awareness, and time pressure, placing players inside a confined house where every small mistake has consequences.

What makes Granny interesting from a game design perspective is how it uses audio cues and limited information to shape player behavior. Instead of guiding you, the game forces learning through failure, which creates a strong sense of immersion and psychological pressure.

I recently tried the browser-based version that allows instant play without installation, and the experience still retains the same intensity as the original mobile release. Curious to hear what others think: does Granny’s simple-but-punishing design still hold up compared to modern horror games with more complex mechanics?
