More about The Fabulous Fear Machine

The Fabulous Fear Machine is a narrative-driven strategy game with a pulp horror style, from the creators of Do Not Feed the Monkeys. Players become Masters of the Machine, generating fear through urban legends, conspiracy theories, and cryptids to expand influence. They dispatch Agents to explore locations, manage resources, and spy on rivals. With over 80 Legends, players craft custom terror narratives across regions, while monitoring media reactions and potential twists where their stories may be co-opted into positive themes. The game emphasizes strategic planning over direct action, featuring historical context and global rivalries.
