Dead Space 2

Resources and survival

Isaac Clarke carves through a Necromorph-infested space station with strategic dismemberment while battling his own haunting hallucinations. It is a faster, more cinematic sequel that keeps the original's oppressive sci-fi horror intact.

A surreal, brutal action shooter with a heavily stylized look that sends players on a psychedelic descent through a warped reality. The metadata points to fast-paced combat and an unsettling atmosphere.

The Evil Within

Resources and survival

Shinji Mikami's brutal survival horror sends detective Sebastian Castellanos through a shifting, nightmarish world. Scarce ammo, deadly traps and grotesque monsters keep the tension constantly high.

Hellboy: Web of Wyrd

Boss fights as highlights

A roguelite brawler in Mike Mignola's comic-book style: as Hellboy you fight through a nightmarish haunted realm full of monsters while searching for a missing agent. Heavy-hitting melee combat and a BPRD hub base define the experience.

Mafia

Shooting and gunplay

A cinematic gangster drama set in 1930s Lost Heaven, following cab driver Tommy Angelo's rise within the Salieri crime family. Authentic period cars, punishing shootouts and one of the finest stories of its era make it a classic.

Omikron: The Nomad Soul

Lots to discover

A genre-blending 1999 adventure where your soul inhabits bodies in the dark futuristic city of Omikron, mixing exploration, puzzles, shooting and fighting-game combat. Notable for its David Bowie soundtrack and the idea of reincarnating into different bodies.

OTXO

Shooting and gunplay

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.

The Last Faith

Boss fights as highlights

A dark, gothic pixel-art Metroidvania that blends Soulslike combat with sprawling interconnected exploration and plenty of weapon and build options. You fight through a decaying world ravaged by plague and a corrupt religion as Eric.
