"It's a little bit hard to work out without knowing the altitude of that dragon..."Read our editorial policyContent Warning is the new Lethal Company - or it is today at least. It's come out of nowhere, it's a gorgeously scrappy co-op horror experience, and it excels at creating moments that are frightening but also deeply hilarious. But there's something extra in the mix with Content Warning. It's astonishingly wholesome. Well, my second game was anyway.

All of this stuff is liable to move around a little between visits. And yes, it's basically House of Leaves, the legendary weird fiction book about a small house that contains huge corridors and depths, but with four players and emotes. In my first game it was as oppressive as House of Leaves too. I was thrown in with three Spanish players who communicated largely by burping.

That spider: yes, Content Warning is not going to be for everyone. It was frightening when it shambled out of the darkness, almost an antic Biro doodle of a spider, but with a flat vented face like a steam iron. I was noting all this as it tangled me up in webs and my health started to decrease. But mainly I was laughing, because everyone was laughing. We were filming me getting murdered by a spider and we were loving it. This is horror at its cheeriest. It's Jolly House of Leaves.
