I played a lot of free games and most of them I uninstalled immediately after playing. I love finding games like these, because you get a chance to try them out before you decide if you want to pay for any further episodes or in-app purchases. That's fair - several of them are free introductory episodes with subsequent episodes costing $2-$5. *Now, of course, you could argue that most of these apps aren't really free. But some little gems were narrative, and I downloaded several to try them out. Some were jump scare prank apps that I presume you use on your friends. Some were survival games that I was terrible at. I turned to my phone and thought, "I wonder what happens when you type 'horror' into the app store?" I was surprised by the amount of horror games that came up! Many were "escape" games, where you wake up in a dark room and have to find your way out. I'd just finished Until Dawn and didn't have the luxury of enough disposable income to purchase a new game. The other day, I was itching to play a horror game. It's not that I'm elitist, I just prefer the feel of a controller in my hand. Though I love my PS4, I generally don't play anything on my cellphone. I confess, I'm not much of a mobile gamer.
