Impact Winter

A party of several characters

As the leader of a small band of survivors, you manage resources, send companions out to scout, and keep them alive for 30 days in a snowbound world after an asteroid strike. Every day forces tough trade-offs between food, warmth and morale.

Beholder

Strong, story-driven narrative

As a state-appointed apartment manager in a totalitarian regime, you spy on tenants and make morally heavy decisions. Time, money and conscience are all scarce, and your choices lead to many different endings.

The Alters

A party of several characters

Stranded worker Jan clones alternate versions of himself, each shaped by a different life choice, and must manage them in a mobile base while racing a lethal sunrise. It's survival management fused with a thoughtful drama about identity and roads not taken.

Pathologic 2

Challenging difficulty

As the healer Artemy Burakh, you struggle through a plague-ridden steppe town against hunger, relentless time pressure and scarce resources. Every decision leaves lasting consequences, and the bleak, surreal narrative never lets you rest.

Distrust

A party of several characters

An isometric survival game set in a remote Arctic research station during the polar night, where you juggle warmth, supplies and your characters' sanity. Procedurally generated runs and multiple endings keep it replayable.

This Is the Police

Tactical depth

As aging police chief Jack Boyd, you dispatch officers, manage staff, and make morally murky choices while scraping together retirement money over 180 days. A grim noir tale of corruption and guilt told in a stylish silhouette art style.

Pathologic 3

Strong, story-driven narrative

As the rationalist doctor Dankovsky, you try to beat death itself in a strange town ravaged by plague. Its new twist is time manipulation, letting you revisit and alter key events across twelve days, in an oppressive, narrative-heavy blend of horror and survival.

Weird West

Tactical depth

Weird West is a dark Western fantasy immersive-sim RPG from ex-Arkane developers, where you play several outcasts in turn. The world reacts lastingly to your decisions, and combat mixes guns, magic and environmental tricks with a slow-time ability.
