Red Face Horror (Bad Parenting: Mr. Red Face) is an indie horror game developed by a Vietnamese developer. The game is short, less than an hour to play, but the feeling it leaves lasts for a long time.
You play as a child in a small apartment. Initially, it's just normal things like going to sleep and hearing noises. But the further you play, the more things go off track, no longer "normal."
The character "Red Face" initially seems like a bogeyman to scare children, but is actually connected to a very heavy family story.
Genre: Psychological Horror, Exploration
This game isn't difficult; almost anyone can play it.
On PC
You just need to follow what the game leads you to. There's no fighting, no complex skills.
On your phone:
Playing at a slow pace is best.
The atmosphere is very "cold."
The game uses simple, somewhat outdated graphics. But that's precisely what makes the space uncomfortable, making it unsettling to play.
The story is not lighthearted
This isn't a typical horror game. The content relates to family, violence, and child psychology.
Red Face isn't simply a "monster."
In fact, this character is a distorted image of the father in the game, linked to issues of alcoholism and violence.
Red Face Horror is not a game for "just fun entertainment". It's short, the gameplay is simple, but the story is quite heavy.
