Game overview
About Fright Train
Fright Train is a single-player third-person survival horror roguelite from WildArts Games. You play canine paranormal agent Doug Barker aboard the L.R.S. Great White as it races across Antarctica. Scavenge cars, manage a tactical body inventory, upgrade weapons, and keep the train running through storm waves — if it stops, the blizzard and the horrors win. Start with the Getting Started guide, study inventory management, then check the weapons tier list and controls.
