Sylvio is a psychological horror game set in a tranquil, disturbing atmosphere. Ghost recorder Juliette Waters trespasses into an abandoned family park, shut down since a landslide in 1971. The voices of the deceased captured on her reel-to-reel recorder reveals a tale of an evil curse and a wicked family cult, currently living in the park. First-person horror with a multi-layered story. 10 – 15 hours gameplay. Open world exploration by foot or car. Conduct seances, search for voices in the static, and analyze your recordings with a unique audio gameplay mechanic.

For something made 10 years ago this is still so unique, creepy and macabre in a way I haven't found in any other game.
It's got a sort of weird mix between being dread-inducing but also kind of relaxing to play, it's more like a horror-themed puzzle/exploration game rather than outright scary, but there are certainly chilling moments.
The best part of the game is the EVP deciphering, it's so creepy yet satisfying finding the different words/phrases hidden in your recordings, piecing together what happened to the ghost and how it relates to the overall story.
It's definitely not perfect by any means, the controls/UI are pretty dated and some of the puzzles feel way too obscure or easily sequence-breakable, especially in the Zoo level.
But if you're prepared to deal with a bit of jank, I'd definitely give it a go if you're an indie-horror fan.
