In Sound Mind

Dread and tension

A first-person psychological horror where you dive into the nightmares and memories of a therapist's patients. Inventive environmental puzzles, unusual boss fights and a standout original soundtrack define the experience.

Shadow Man Remastered

Dread and tension

As Mike LeRoi, possessed by voodoo power, you move between the world of the living and the land of the dead, hunting serial killers to stop an apocalypse. The remaster brings back this dark, sprawling 90s-style shooter-platformer with sharper visuals.

Half-Life: Source

Dark, serious atmosphere

The Source engine version of the shooter classic: as scientist Gordon Freeman you fight through aliens and soldiers after an experiment goes wrong at Black Mesa. Updated lighting, water and physics refresh the look, but it remains the tightly scripted, linear original.

Metroid Dread

Boss fights as highlights

Samus Aran's 2D return pairs fluid, fast movement and precise melee counters with classic Metroidvania exploration. Tense escapes from the near-invincible E.M.M.I. robots and demanding boss fights keep the pressure high.

The Final Station

Resources and survival

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.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition

Resources and survival

The series reboot shows a young Lara Croft fighting to survive on a hostile island, mixing cinematic action, climbing and gunplay with optional tombs. The Definitive Edition adds improved visuals and includes all DLC.

Alice: Madness Returns

Dread and tension

A grim hack-and-slash platformer that turns Wonderland into a twisted reflection of Alice's shattered mind. Its grotesquely beautiful art direction and haunting story about her family's death make every realm memorable.

Hidden Deep

Dread and tension

In this 2D action game you lead a team of explorers deep beneath the ocean floor to learn what happened to a lost expedition. Along the way you run into alien structures and deadly creatures in a tense sci-fi horror atmosphere.
