Imscared (stylized as IMSCARED) is an indie horror video game created by Ivan Zanotti. This game features an unnamed protagonist in a room, unable to escape due to the door needing a heart to open it. Upon the player investigating, they find a little key under a table which can be used to open a wardrobe, revealing blood and a hidden entrance through which the player must pass if they want to find a way out of the room. Eventually, the player finds themself chased by beings known as "White Face" and "HER" that can create and alter files on the player's computer, close the game, and more.

The game has received positive reviews from critics, praising the retro-style graphics, sound design, and the "out-of-game" elements like creating and altering files as well as the game closing itself and creating a fake BSOD, while criticizing the confusing plot. It is one of the earliest examples of a game altering files on one's computer, paving the way for games like Undertale and Doki Doki Literature Club.

On October 12, 2022, the game got a major revamp for its 10th anniversary, including being remastered to 60 fps. The original version of the game can still be played and can be accessed in settings.
