According to a scientific study conducted by Broadband Choice's The Science of Scare Project, this game holds the title of the scariest game of all time. And with good reason: it didn't just offer jump-scares or scary graphics. Bloodious Games worked meticulously on atmosphere, gameplay and story, giving players a nerve-wracking experience.

How was the study carried out? 200 participants were invited to play over 45 horror games released over the last three decades. They were fitted with heart monitors to monitor their heart rate, first at rest, then in the middle of the game. Of all the games tested, MADiSON showed a higher average heart rate than the other games, up to 94 beats per minute, even peaking at 131 beats. The results are clear: MADiSON far outstrips its competitors when it comes to scares.

So, if you're looking for unrivalled thrills, this is definitely the game to try. Ready for the scare of your life, folks?
