“Imagine waking up here… nope, I’m out.”
Some game worlds are thrilling, immersive, and unforgettable — but would you actually want to live there?
This list explores five terrifying game universes that would be absolute hell to inhabit.
Fun to play, but as a resident? No thanks.
① Resident Evil
🧟♂️ Zombies, monsters, and bioweapons — your neighborhood has it all
- From the classic T-Virus to mold monsters and Las Plagas, there’s always a new nightmare loose in town.
- The police stations, hospitals, and labs are always the first to fall.
- Unless you’re a main character, your chances of survival are basically zero.
📝 “Your safest bet is standing next to Leon or Claire at all times.”
② Bloodborne
🦑 Where night never ends and your sanity doesn’t last long
- The city of Yharnam is cursed with a blood disease that turns people into beasts.
- Churches worship Lovecraftian horrors, and just learning the truth can drive you mad.
- You don’t know what’s real, and by the time you do… it’s too late.
🧠 “The more you understand, the faster you go insane. Welcome to Bloodborne.”
③ Monster Hunter
🦖 A world where giant dragons are just… around the corner
- Your friendly neighborhood has Rathalos flying overhead, Diablos in the desert, and literal gods in the volcano.
- Villagers casually say things like “Could you grab some ore? Just watch out for the elder dragon.”
- Unless you’re a Hunter, you’re basically toast.
🐾 “‘Local wildlife’ shouldn’t have theme music and 3 attack phases.”
④ Dark Souls
🕯️ A world with no hope, no sun, and no peace — only struggle
- The world is crumbling. Humanity is hollow. Even the most powerful NPCs are losing their minds.
- You die, come back, die again — and nothing changes.
- Even the “good endings” feel like a cosmic shrug.
☠️ “It’s not that the world is ending. It’s already ended. You’re just here for the leftovers.”
⑤ Silent Hill
🌫️ The town reads your soul and turns it into a horror movie
- Covered in fog and filled with grotesque creatures, this town knows your deepest fears and regrets.
- You’re not fighting monsters — you’re fighting yourself.
- And if you see a locked door? Just don’t open it.
🔔 “If you’ve arrived in Silent Hill, something is already wrong with you.”
🔚 Conclusion: Game worlds are fun — until you’re stuck in one
Some places are fun to visit virtually…
But if you actually lived there, you’d be screaming nonstop.
