A brutally fast top-down shooter where one hit kills and every floor is mastered through rapid trial, error and instant restarts. Its neon visuals, pulsing synthwave soundtrack and unsettling, surreal story about violence make it unforgettable.

OTXO

Challenging difficulty

A brutal top-down roguelite shooter where you slow time to blast and brawl through a mansion full of enemies. Fast runs, precise aiming and a stylish, dark look define it.

Max Payne 3

Dark, serious atmosphere

A brutal, cinematic third-person shooter where a broken Max Payne stumbles through São Paulo's violent underworld using bullet time and shootdodges. Its bleak noir storytelling and seamless cutscene-to-gameplay transitions set it apart.

Katana Zero

Dark, serious atmosphere

A blistering neo-noir action platformer where one hit kills and each room plays like a puzzle solved with your katana, slow-motion and deflected bullets. It's wrapped in a twisted, fragmented story with dialogue choices and a superb synthwave soundtrack.

Deadbolt

A brutally tough 2D stealth shooter where you play the Reaper hunting the undead. Every mistake can be fatal, so you must carefully plan your stealth, takedowns and shooting.

Max Payne

A grim neo-noir shooter that popularized bullet time: as a vengeful cop you dive in slow motion through a snowbound New York, with the story told through graphic-novel panels and hardboiled narration.

Twisted Metal: Black

A grim vehicle-combat game where deranged drivers battle in wrecked arenas, each with a disturbing personal story. Fast, weapon-heavy duels, a brutal horror-tinged atmosphere and strong split-screen multiplayer define it.

Jackal

Challenging difficulty

A brutal top-down close-quarters action game where you raid 1970s hotels. Randomly generated rooms and stackable mutators make every run different and demand precise timing.

12 is Better than 6

Distinctive, stylised art style
