Nightmare Studios is a Norwegian independent horror game studio founded in 2021 by Patrick N. Its official website positions the studio as “Independent. Focused. Fearless.” Its core focus is creating memorable horror experiences through atmosphere, immersion, and player feedback. Its games are primarily aimed at the Windows PC platform on Steam.
Based on disclosed projects, Nightmare Studios is not just a single-game team, but is expanding across three areas: in-house development, co-development, and publishing. Its in-house/related games include the co-op horror title 《Abnormality》, the multiplayer open-world horror game 《Surrounded》, and the tactical horror game 《PREDATORS》. Collaborative projects include 《AFTER HOURS》, developed with Lunar Entertainment. Published titles include 《Project Unknowns》 and the more relaxed simulation game 《Starlit Stories》. The team emphasizes multiplayer experiences, but its FAQ states that all games can also be played solo. On the community side, players can report bugs and provide feedback via Discord, while media can download the Press Kit and get in touch for interviews or review keys.
The official website does not disclose specific game prices, discounts, payment models, or publishing revenue shares. What can be confirmed is that the games are mainly offered for Windows PC through Steam, with a business model closer to per-title game sales. The Press Kit includes logos, screenshots, trailers, and fact sheets, but the text does not specify the licensing scope for these materials, so media outlets or creators should still contact the team for confirmation before use.
Its strengths are its highly focused positioning and clear brand identity built around horror, co-op play, immersion, and player feedback. At the same time, it already has multiple in-house, collaborative, and publishing projects, suggesting that it is evolving from an individual/small-team developer into a more complete independent game label. The weaknesses are also clear: all statistics on the official website are shown as 0, making it difficult to assess real player numbers, social media reach, or release performance. Details on publishing partnership terms, pricing, and platform roadmaps are also lacking. As a small team, its ability to provide future updates, customer support, and long-term operations still needs to be observed.
It is suitable for players who enjoy Steam co-op horror, open-world horror, or small-team independent horror games. It may also be worth an initial contact for indie developers seeking publishing and marketing support. The review text does not provide information on access from China. The availability of the official website and related channels such as Steam, Discord, and YouTube in mainland China may be affected by local network conditions, so this is marked as unknown.
