* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: ZigZaggedTrope. Cassie understandably freaks out whenever hostile ghosts appear, but she's rather nonplussed about other supernatural phenomena. For example, one of the rooms she enters transforms into a tunnel leading to a French speakeasy with a bouncer requesting a password. She has no reaction to this other than resolving to find the password.

Perception is SurvivalHorror video game developed by The Deep End Games and published by Feardemic.
The story follows Cassie Thornton, a blind woman who perceives the world using echolocation. Her adventure begins when she is drawn to a large mansion, which is ostensibly the source of her nightmares.
It was released for Microsoft Windows on May 30, 2017, followed by the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions on June 6, and by the Nintendo Switch version on October 31.

!!The game provides examples of:
* DisabilitySuperpower: On account of not being blind, Cassie has developed echolocation to make her way around.
* IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels: In order of increasing difficulty, Story, Spooky, and Scary. Story allows you to browse through the game casually, Scary will make enemies more aggressive and boot you to the start if you die. Spooky is the "default" mode to play and you'll only be sent to the front door of the house, all your progress saved.
* LivingMotionDetector: By necessity. Cassie uses echolocation, which means she can "see" a short distance in front of her with every step she takes. More importantly, she uses this to sense where the monsters are coming from.
* NoticeThis: Landmarks and other important things (such as lockers to hide in) are marked green and can usually be seen without using her ability.
* StopMotionLighting: Not the usual form of the trope, but Cassie walking around generates a "visible" area with each step. Tapping her cane does this as well for a sizable area.
* SurvivalHorror: Notable in that, by default, you are shrouded in darkness (on account of being blind), and the only time you can actually "see" anything is if you have landmarks or if something produces sound.
