Strong, story-driven narrative

As a 1920s private eye in the half-drowned town of Oakmont, you solve eerie cases by reconstructing crime scenes and drawing your own conclusions, with little hand-holding, in a Lovecraftian nightmare. Thick atmosphere and morally grey decisions carry the game, while the combat is serviceable rather than great.

Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise

Lots of humour

A quirky mystery-detective tale that jumps between the present day and flashbacks to solve the Le Carré murders. Offbeat humor, strange characters and janky technical execution define its cult charm.

Squirrel Stapler

Lots of humour

You play a lonely recluse hunting squirrels around a remote cabin to make his decaying beloved beautiful again. A short, macabre horror game with pitch-black humor that parodies low-budget edutainment titles.

Duck Season

Dread and tension

A nostalgic horror adventure where you play a kid in the 90s binging a duck-hunting video game, slowly realizing something sinister lurks in both the game and the apartment. Short, atmospheric and full of retro charm with a dark twist.

Cursed Mountain

Dread and tension

As mountaineer Eric Simmons, you search an abandoned Himalayan village for your missing brother. Tibetan mythology, oppressive atmosphere and ghost fights using ritual gestures define this survival horror adventure.

Choo-Choo Charles

Open world

You roam an open island in an upgradeable locomotive, take on missions, and hunt Charles, a monstrous spider-legged killer train that keeps stalking you. The mix of train upgrades, exploration, and campy horror is distinctive.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Open world

As Tommy Vercetti you rise from lackey to crime lord in a neon-soaked take on 1980s Miami, with sharp satire, a sprawling city to cause chaos in, and an iconic licensed radio soundtrack.

Realms of the Haunting

Dread and tension

A 1996 horror adventure blending first-person shooting with puzzles and exploration. You investigate a haunted house and uncover an occult threat, told through live-action cutscenes.

Alan Wake

Dread and tension

A novelist hunts for his vanished wife in a misty Pacific Northwest town, fighting shadowy possessed foes with flashlight and gun while the pages of a manuscript he doesn't remember writing come true. Its TV-series-style episodic storytelling and eerie atmosphere are the main draw.

My Friendly Neighborhood

Dread and tension

A horror shooter that turns a faded children's puppet show into a disturbing nightmare. The contrast between cheerful puppets and creeping dread gives it its charm.
