  • Strong, story-driven narrative

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Sci-fi setting

A cyberpunk immersive sim with a striking black-and-gold Renaissance aesthetic, where augmented agent Adam Jensen can tackle every mission through stealth, hacking, persuasion or brute force. Layered levels and a conspiracy plot about transhumanism reward curiosity and experimentation.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Sci-fi setting

As augmented agent Adam Jensen you explore a densely layered Prague hub and tackle missions through stealth, hacking, social manipulation or open combat. Its strength lies in remarkable player freedom and a bleak cyberpunk tale of segregation and conspiracy.

Cronos: The New Dawn

Dark, serious atmosphere

Bloober Team's survival horror casts you as a Traveler moving through a retro-futuristic, ruined Poland, from the 1980s to the apocalypse. Scarce ammo, monsters that merge unless you burn their corpses, and a layered time-travel plot keep the tension high.

Metro: Last Light

Dark, serious atmosphere

A claustrophobic first-person shooter set in the post-nuclear Moscow metro, where scarce ammo, gas mask filters and stealth turn every encounter into a fight for survival. Dense atmosphere and a grim story following Artyom drive the experience.

Chernobylite

Dark, serious atmosphere

Singularity

Sci-fi setting

A sci-fi shooter set on an abandoned Soviet island, where a time-manipulation device lets you age enemies to dust, restore decayed objects and solve environmental puzzles. Its BioShock-style horror atmosphere frames a Cold War time-paradox story.

Atomic Heart

Sci-fi setting

A first-person shooter set in a retro-futuristic Soviet utopia where the robots have turned on their makers. It mixes punchy melee and gunplay, glove-powered abilities, puzzle-filled test facilities and bizarre humor with a striking art direction.

Metro Awakening VR

Dark, serious atmosphere

A VR trip into the bleak post-apocalyptic Moscow metro, where you sneak, fight and scavenge with a gas mask, flashlight and scarce supplies. The story of a doctor searching for his wife feels especially intense thanks to VR immersion.

Metro 2033

Dark, serious atmosphere

A claustrophobic first-person shooter set in Moscow's post-nuclear metro tunnels, where scarce ammo, gas mask filters and darkness turn every encounter into a fight for survival. Hidden moral choices quietly shape which ending Artyom reaches.
