Horror Mechanics (For More Than Just Horror)"In the genre of horror, game designers and writers have developed an arsenal of tools specifically to disempower the characters in their worlds.

The goal of this panel is to break down why specific horror mechanics work and how to use them effectively, regardless of genre.
