Stasis

Sci-fi setting

A grim sci-fi horror point-and-click adventure in an isometric view: aboard a seemingly abandoned spaceship you solve classic item and computer puzzles while piecing together a disturbing story.

Penumbra: Black Plague

Sneaking and hiding

A claustrophobic first-person horror game set in an underground research facility, where you survive through physics-based puzzles and hiding rather than weapons. Atmosphere and fear of the unknown matter far more than combat.

Inside

Sneaking and hiding

A wordless, oppressive puzzle-platformer in which a boy slips through a bleak dystopia, controlling bodies with his mind along the way. Masterful atmosphere and a disturbing finale make it unforgettable.

Amnesia: Rebirth

Sneaking and hiding

A first-person horror adventure set in the 1937 Algerian desert, where you play the defenseless Tasi, hiding from monsters, solving puzzles and slowly uncovering a disturbing truth. Its strengths are dense atmosphere and a dark, emotional story.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

Lavish presentation

A claustrophobic first-person reboot of the series that traps you in the rotting Baker family estate in Louisiana, scraping by on scarce ammo while stalked by relentless hosts and solving puzzles. It trades action spectacle for intimate, grimy dread.

Resident Evil 2

Post-apocalyptic setting

The survival horror classic sends Leon and Claire through zombie-infested Raccoon City, where scarce ammo, inventory management, puzzles and fixed camera angles keep tension high. Two intertwined scenarios reward multiple playthroughs.

Conarium

Strong, story-driven narrative

An atmospheric first-person Lovecraftian adventure in which you play Frank Gilman, unraveling the fate of a doomed Antarctic expedition. Puzzles, eerie dreamlike realms and a bleak story take center stage rather than combat.

Madison

Strong, story-driven narrative

A first-person psychological horror game where an instant camera bridges the human world and the beyond. You develop photos yourself to solve disturbing puzzles while surviving a deeply unsettling atmosphere.

Lone Survivor

Sneaking and hiding

A 2D pixel-art psychological horror where you play a masked survivor in a plague-ridden city, managing hunger, sleep and your own sanity. You choose between sneaking past threats or fighting them, and the oppressive atmosphere and music stay with you.
