A short tech-noir survival horror set in an abandoned British city: as smuggler Mica you search for your missing partner with scarce resources. It mixes exploration, puzzles and gunplay in the spirit of classic PS1-era horror games.

Resident Evil 2

Challenging difficulty

The survival horror classic sends Leon and Claire through zombie-infested Raccoon City, where scarce ammo, inventory management, puzzles and fixed camera angles keep tension high. Two intertwined scenarios reward multiple playthroughs.

Cronos: The New Dawn

Challenging difficulty

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.

Dark, serious atmosphere

A classic survival horror game with scarce resources, inventory puzzles and a cryptic, melancholic sci-fi story. Its blend of retro 3D aesthetics, anime-inspired bleakness and cosmic dread creates a dense, unsettling atmosphere.

The Final Station

Challenging difficulty

An atmospheric 2D side-scroller where you ride a train through a collapsing world, scavenge stations for supplies, fight off the infected, and keep your passengers alive. The shift between tense, ammo-scarce station raids and quiet train upkeep creates a bleak, oppressive mood.

Galerians

Challenging difficulty

A PlayStation survival horror where young Rion has no weapons and fights with psychic powers that must be recharged by taking drugs. Pre-rendered backgrounds and a bleak sci-fi conspiracy create an oppressive atmosphere.

Hail to the Rainbow

Pure single-player experience

A gloomy, story-driven adventure set in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk world, where you guide the lonely Ignat through puzzles and uncover the secrets of the chaos around him. I know little about the game's details, so this rating relies mostly on the metadata.

Athanasia

Challenging difficulty

A survival horror shooter with immersive sim elements where you explore a mysterious facility and fend off predators from prehistory and the future using gear and wits. Its Metroidvania structure rewards exploration.
