🩸 Survivor’s Dread – Horror Survival Diaries

Fear takes many forms. Some have claws, some have engines, and some just have depth. New logs drop as I survive (badly) across horror worlds on Steam Deck and Switch.

Latest from Survivor’s Dread

Fresh chaos from the corridors, the coast, and the rails. Updated whenever something tries (and nearly succeeds) to kill me.

Ongoing Series

🧟‍♂️ 7 Days to Survive – 7 Days to Die

Building, scavenging, and surviving a week at a time in the apocalypse. Chill solo rules meet permadeath — because horde night doesn’t care about your feelings.

👽 Isolation Protocol – Alien: Isolation

Sevastopol Station at medium difficulty. Apex Predator Rule in effect — three strikes against the Xenomorph before the diary ends.

🩸 Derailed & Doomed – Choo Choo Charles

One train, one spider, and one bad idea. Played under the Apex Predator Rule. Non-Charles deaths count as injuries — only the spider-train decides when this story ends.

🌊 Submerged – A Subnautica Survival Diary

Not all fear lives in the dark — some hides under the waves. Isolation, pressure, and shapes that move below. “Horror-adjacent,” but it earns its place among the nightmares.

All Survivor’s Dread Series

Every horror or horror-adjacent survival diary — complete, ongoing, or gloriously doomed mid-run.

The Apex Predator Rule

Formerly the Xenomorph Rule. In games with an unstoppable hunter, I may “die” up to three times. Each counts as a near-death escape; on the third, the monster wins and the run ends. It keeps tension high without cheap resets.
