Item Restricted User Interface in Contemporary Popular Horror Video Games : Exploring the Balance Between the Types of UI elements and Immersion(2023) Arina Capanu; Müller, Felix; Rieß, Henrik; Faculty of Architecture and Design; Berlin International University of Applied SciencesAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: This thesis delves into the intricate relationship between user interface (UI) design and player immersion in the genre of horror video games. While a good horror game relies on elements such as narrative, sound design, and gameplay mechanics, this study posits that UI also plays a crucial role in modulating player's immersion and overall experience. Drawing upon examples from contemporary horror games like Metro 2033 Redux, Layers of Fear, and Dead by Daylight, the research aims to identify how different types of UI components can either enhance or disrupt the horror atmosphere. The core objective is to analyze the impact of UI on players' satisfaction and provide insights into how it can be optimized for a more thrilling and immersive experience. With the rise of the video game industry and advancements in technology, the thesis argues for the importance of understanding the role of UI in creating compelling horror game experiences.
