Survival Horror

Subgenre of Horror, where player's character is usually more vulnerable and under-armed, usually focusing on evasion, stealth and/or puzzle-solving, rather than combat.

Suggest updated description

Text based

Focused on using its text, moreso than its visuals or audio, to tell the bulk of its story/plot. (Still can have great audio and visuals, though!)
