Nun Massacre in IOS

Terrifying VHS horror!

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

82/100

Nun Massacre is a terrifying, low-fi horror experience that feels like a lost PS1 game. The 'VHS' aesthetic isn't just for style; it creates a grainy, claustrophobic atmosphere that makes every corner feel dangerous. The AI of the Nun is genuinely unpredictable and relentless. When you hear those heavy footsteps and the screeching sound effects, the panic is real.

This is not a game for the faint of heart. It’s difficult, often requiring multiple tries to figure out the layout of the school and the puzzles while being hunted. The touch controls are surprisingly decent for a first-person horror game, though a controller is definitely the way to go for the best experience. If you miss the era of Silent Hill and want a mobile game that will actually make you jump, this is it.
