  • Lots to discover
  • Dark, serious atmosphere
  • Distinctive, stylised art style

A wordless dream-exploration game where you wander surreal, unsettling dreamscapes as Madotsuki, collecting Effects. There is almost no plot, leaving all meaning to the player's own interpretation.

LSD: Dream Emulator

Distinctive, stylised art style

A surreal, goalless dream experience where you wander through psychedelic, randomly linked dreamscapes that shift whenever you bump into walls or objects. An experimental cult oddity that offers mood over traditional gameplay.

Hypnagogia

Distinctive, stylised art style

Hypnagogia takes you through dreamlike worlds built from real dreams, haunted by sleep paralysis demons and liminal spaces. Its nostalgic late-90s polygonal look makes for a short but unsettling journey.

Lisa: The First

Accessible and relaxed

A short, disturbing Yume Nikki-style exploration game that walks through a surreal dreamscape of young Lisa's traumatized mind. It tells a very bleak story of abuse and despair without conventional combat.

Yume 2kki

Distinctive, stylised art style

A huge fan-made dream-exploration game in the spirit of Yume Nikki: as Urotsuki you wander through hundreds of surreal dream worlds, collecting Effects that unlock new paths and secrets. There is no combat, just cryptic discovery, wandering and an unsettling mood.

The Complex: Found Footage

Accessible and relaxed

A walking-simulator horror game viewed through a VHS camera, in which you wander endless dreamlike Backrooms-style spaces. Its cryptic story raises more questions than it answers.

Anatomy

Accessible and relaxed

You explore an eerie suburban house from a first-person view, collecting cassette tapes and piecing together a disturbing story from fragments. The game thrives on its quiet, unsettling atmosphere and the curiosity about what lurks within its walls.

Eclipsium

Distinctive, stylised art style

A surreal, unsettling indie horror adventure where you push through a dark, twisted world toward a distant tower. It focuses on atmosphere and disorientation rather than combat.

The Path

Accessible and relaxed

An experimental psychological horror art game that reimagines Little Red Riding Hood in modern times: six sisters are told to stay on the path, but straying into the woods leads to symbolic, unsettling encounters with the wolf.
