Yomawari: Night Alone

Sneaking and hiding

A young girl wanders a eerie Japanese town at night searching for her sister and dog. Defenseless, she relies on a flashlight, hiding and running from disturbing spirits, all in a bleak storybook-like art style.

Knock-knock

Easy to pick up

A surreal horror game where you play a lonely cabin dweller who must survive the night by turning on lights and hiding from strange visitors. Its eerie, dreamlike mood is the main draw.

Shelter 2

Easy to pick up

You play a mother lynx raising her cubs through a painterly wilderness, hunting, protecting and feeding them. A quiet, emotional survival adventure with simple mechanics.

Boris and the Dark Survival

Sneaking and hiding

You play as Boris the Wolf, scavenging supplies through an abandoned cartoon studio while the Ink Demon hunts you from every shadow. Hidden secrets reward those brave enough to dig deeper into the decaying halls.

Thief

Lavish presentation

As master thief Garrett, you sneak through a grim, plague-ridden city in first person, looting mansions from the shadows rather than fighting openly. The reboot of the classic series leans on moody atmosphere and multiple routes through its missions, though it feels more linear than its predecessors.

Hello Neighbor

Pure single-player experience

A cartoonish stealth-horror game where you break into a creepy neighbor's house to uncover what's hidden in his basement. An adaptive AI learns your routes and sets traps, mixing cryptic physics puzzles with tense, sometimes frustrating chases.
