Brings what grabs you about Silent Hill: dread and tension, a dark atmosphere as well as a strong story.

Silent Hill 3

Dread and tension

Heather is dragged into a nightmarish otherworld where a mall, a subway and a hospital rot into rust, flesh and blood. Disturbing imagery, Akira Yamaoka's oppressive soundtrack and cryptic puzzles carry the game, while clumsy, desperate combat keeps every encounter tense.

Silent Hill: Origins

Dread and tension

A prequel to the first Silent Hill, in which trucker Travis Grady shifts between the real town and its nightmare twin, solving puzzles and scraping through clunky melee fights. Oppressive atmosphere and disturbing monsters are the main draw.

Resident Evil

Lots to discover

Silent Hill f

Dread and tension

Silent Hill f moves survival horror to 1960s rural Japan, where young Hinako fights through a town overgrown by crimson flowers. Ryukishi07's story explores social pressure and transformation across multiple endings, backed by melee-heavy combat built on dodges and counters.

Silent Hill 2

Dread and tension

You search the fog-shrouded town of Silent Hill for the place where your wife supposedly waits, and the game pulls you into a unsettling psychological horror story. This HD remaster polishes the visuals, voice acting and soundtrack without diluting the eerie core of the original.

Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare

Dread and tension

Classic survival horror set on a gloomy island where you play as either Carnby or Aline: he leans on weapons, she on puzzles. Fixed camera angles, scarce ammo and flashlight-lit tension drive the dread.
