It creates automatic tension the moment it starts because you can't do anything wrong or it will cost you your life. I love it when a series is able to make me truly feel such strong emotions like the ones you described, too! I definitely understand what you mean!

Mirai Nikki and Eden of the East are likely the most prominent example of well-done survival games. :D It depends on the series I suppose, having a survival game as a background doesn’t imply the series will actually be good, but yes generally I like this kind of genre.

When you combine murder along with characters that you actually know a thing or two about them, it makes for an interesting combination! I definitely understand.

I absolutely love it when something of any form of media can get under your skin to the extent it produces a physiological reaction, e.g. crying, or stress, so naturally survival horror is a firm favourite of mine in regards to genre.

Not because I'm into gore or anything but because it's rather interesting to look into a character's personality when they go through so many emotional outbursts.
