2003PCPlayStation

Brings what grabs you about Stray Souls: dread and tension, a dark atmosphere as well as melee combat with weapons or fists.

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

Strong, story-driven narrative

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.

Silent Hill: Homecoming

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A grim survival horror in which a soldier returns home to Shepherd's Glen to find his missing brother. Melee combat against grotesque monsters, puzzles and an oppressive atmosphere define the experience.

Silent Hill 4: The Room

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Locked inside his own apartment, Henry Townshend crawls through a hole in the wall into nightmarish worlds while his home slowly becomes haunted. It is the series' most claustrophobic and experimental entry, with first-person apartment sections and an unsettling Akira Yamaoka score.

Silent Hill: Downpour

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A psychological survival horror in which an escaped convict wanders the rain-soaked, fog-draped town of Silent Hill, solving puzzles and fending off monsters with improvised melee weapons. Moral choices and optional side quests add to the oppressive, bleak atmosphere.

The Chant

Strong, story-driven narrative

An action horror game set on a remote island where a New Age cult's ritual goes horribly wrong. You fight surreal, hallucinatory horrors using spiritual abilities and improvised weapons in a dark, unsettling world.

Silent Hill

Puzzles and brain teasers

As ordinary father Harry Mason, you search a fog-shrouded town for your missing daughter and slip into a nightmarish otherworld. Oppressive fog, unsettling industrial sound design and cryptic puzzles make this a defining psychological horror classic with multiple endings.

Condemned: Criminal Origins

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A grim first-person horror thriller where you hunt serial killers as detective Ethan Thomas. Gritty melee combat with pipes, lockers and other scavenged objects plus a oppressive atmosphere define the experience.

Tormented Souls

Puzzles and brain teasers

A survival horror throwback to early Resident Evil with fixed camera angles, intricate puzzles and scarce ammo. You guide Caroline through a decaying mansion full of secrets and grotesque creatures.

Silent Hill 2

Strong, story-driven narrative

A landmark of psychological horror where James's search for his dead wife through fog-shrouded Silent Hill becomes a harrowing confrontation with guilt and grief. Oppressive atmosphere, symbolic monsters and multiple endings make it unforgettable.
