Miasmata

Open world

As a plague-stricken scientist stranded on a remote island, you map the land yourself through triangulation, gather plants to craft medicine, and avoid a stalking creature that hunts you.

Kona

Strong, story-driven narrative

As private detective Carl Flaubert, you investigate strange events at a remote lake in snowbound 1970s Quebec. Thick winter atmosphere, a narrator's commentary and slow clue-hunting drive this quiet, eerie adventure.

Wick

Pure single-player experience

You explore a dark forest alone at night with only a candle, hunting for the ghosts of lost children. Your candlelight is both protection and a limited resource, creating constant tension.

The Painscreek Killings

Open world

As a young journalist you comb through an abandoned 1990s town, gather clues and piece together the truth behind a murder case with almost no hand-holding. It thrives on genuine detective work and a dense, eerie atmosphere.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter Redux

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Visage

Lavish presentation

A slow-burning first-person psychological horror game set in a shifting haunted house full of tragic stories. It relies on sustained dread, puzzles and sanity management rather than combat.
