“Content Warning” is a cooperative survival-horror video game released on April 1, 2024, by Landfall Publishing. In the game, players assume the roles of content creators who explore a dark, abandoned world to film spooky content and upload it to a fictional platform called “SpöökTube.”
The gameplay involves a team of up to four players using a diving bell to descend into the “Old World,” where they encounter eerie environments, haunted artifacts, and dangerous monsters. The goal is to film as many scary occurrences as possible before the players run out of oxygen or camera battery. The footage is then uploaded to SpöökTube, and the success of the video is measured by viewer count, which translates into in-game currency for upgrades and better equipment.
Players must meet viewer quotas within a set time to continue their career, making strategic decisions on what to film and how to survive the horrors of the Old World. The game features online co-op play, voice chat, and various customization options, including an ASCII face customizer.
The game gained rapid popularity, reaching significant player milestones shortly after its release, and continues to maintain positive reviews for its engaging and humorous take on the horror genre
