Horror Revival: Indie Game The Florist Bridges Resident Evil and Silent Hill F
The resurgence of both Capcom and Konami in the horror genre seemed unlikely just a few years ago, but now Capcom is preparing to release Resident Evil Requiem, while Konami has recently launched Silent Hill F, marking a strong comeback for the franchise. Despite its recent release, Silent Hill F is already inspiring indie developers, as seen in the new horror game The Florist, which blends elements of both Resident Evil and Silent Hill F.

Developed by Unclear Games as their debut title, The Florist aims to deliver a classic survival horror experience. The game promises to honor the genre’s roots while introducing a fresh concept, intense gameplay, and intricate puzzles. While this may be ambitious praise, The Florist has garnered attention from fans of Resident Evil and Silent Hill. In The Florist, Jessica Parks’ mission to create a flower arrangement for Joycliffe City suddenly turns nightmarish when a disease rapidly spreads, turning plants into aggressive creatures and people into monsters. The Florist fully embraces the terrifying plant-based infection trope established in Silent Hill F. As one of the few survivors, Jessica must escape this ordeal. The game evokes the classic feel of early Resident Evil and Silent Hill, featuring fixed camera angles, combat, and numerous puzzles. Additionally, the world evolves as the player progresses, and Jessica’s inventory is not limited—a departure from typical games in the genre. Horror fans should mark their calendars for The Florist’s arrival on PlayStation 5, PC, and Nintendo Switch in 2026.
