What is Layers of Fear about?

Set in the years after World War I, the story follows a troubled painter who returns to his eerie Victorian mansion determined to complete his magnum opus. As he wanders the ever-shifting halls in search of the materials he needs, the house warps and rearranges around him, defying spatial logic and dredging up fragments of his past. Piece by piece, letters, objects, and haunting flashbacks reveal the tragedy that befell his wife and family and the toll it has taken on his fracturing mind.

Should I stream Layers of Fear on Twitch?

9/100 · Closed off· 27 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The two biggest English streams hold 92% of the 50 people watching Layers of Fear in English, leaving about 4 for everyone else — and the category empties when they log off.

About 4 of the 50 English viewers here are not watching the two biggest English streams — roughly 1 each if you split it with the 2 other English streams below them. With ten viewers you would sit at #3.

Only 50 of the 188 viewers here (27%) are watching in English. 4 of the 7 live streams are in English.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

Is Layers of Fear too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 7 people are streaming Layers of Fear, and the two biggest English streams hold 92% of the 50 English viewers — so the room is quiet because the audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
