S/D: Horror games

(but then I think that about zombie games and that genre seems to manage just fine)

I can see a Duel-type game as survival horror that necessitates getting from point a to point b. Like, the longer you stay in one place and scavenge and live or build and defend or whatever the more danger you are in, but escaping to a new location has its own challenges. Like evil trucks.

is there a video of it? I couldn't see one on the link

This was where I was introduced to it:

This is why I don't design games I would never have thought of that.

when you wrote 'Duel', for a minute I thought you meant 'Joust'!

A thing that happened in the 13-year delay: Amnesia (also Alien:Isolation)

What I love about the Alien in "Isolation" is that (like the baddie in Resident Evil 2?) it can't really be fought or escaped, it's just this impervious force with a clever AI gumming up the works. Sometimes the rest of "Isolation" is so intense and stressful that you forget all about the Alien! And then it kills you.
