Sažetak (engleski)
This paper examines how different kinds of video games fit into the horror genre. By applying Rick Altman’s semantic/syntactic genre theory to horror video games, this paper will argue that some of those video games are horrors solely on surface level semantics, e.g., looming atmosphere, low key lighting, scary creatures and monsters, blood and gore, etc. However, those games are not horror on the syntax level if they fail to inspire fear into players through gameplay. Games usually succeed in priming players to be scared by putting them in a passive, vulnerable position. Therefore, games (or game franchises) which give players too much power and control and put them in an offensive position, like Diablo or Castlevania, should rather be considered as role-playing games or platform-adventure games with a horror theme. Thus, this paper proposes a clearer distinction between genre and theme when describing video games.
