Last Year: The Nightmare / Last Year is an Asymmetric Multiplayer survival horror game made by Elastic Games.After playing a cursed card game, a group of classmates wake up in a nightmarish reflection of their hometown known as The Nightmare. As they make their way through their school, they find themselves being pursued by a horrifying supernatural force, able to set deadly traps all over the school and manifest itself in the form of different Fiends out for their blood.Though the player playing as the Fiend is outnumbered five to one, their biggest advantage comes in the form of Predator Mode, which allows them to move through the school unseen, keep tabs on the students' locations, set traps to split up and disorient the group, and choose a Fiend to spawn as to move in for the kill. With the Fiend able to spawn in anywhere from smashing in through a nearby wall to crashing in from the ceiling through a skylight, nowhere in East Side High is safe. However, the Classmates aren't completely defenseless - they're able to arm themselves with a wide array of improvised weapons, from lead pipes to jury-rigged flamethrowers and thermos grenades. If the Classmates want any hope of escaping the Nightmare alive, they'll have to complete objectives, use the unique talents offered by their roles to their advantage, and stick together.The game was funded on Kickstarter on December 7th, 2014, and originally released on December 18th, 2018 for PC on the Discord Store, with Playstation 4 and Xbox One versions said to be in the works. The game was eventually re-released on December 10th, 2019 on Steam, almost a year after its initial launch. The game was shut down in late 2021 due to Elastic Games going bankrupt, but was acquired by Undaunted Games and re-released on May 4, 2023.Last Year: The Nightmare is also available on Steam, when it was originally a Discord exclusive. |

Would Hurt a Child: Downplayed, since the survivors are all presumably in their mid- to late teens, but the Fiends (and by extension, the force that trapped them there) are more than willing to murder them in various, often brutal, ways. |

Shotguns Are Just Better: Scouts can craft Shotguns, which can deal 80 damage at point blank. That being said, they only carry 2 rounds, come with a steep Scrap cost - and landing hits on the Fiend is harder than it looks. |
