Hell is Us

Lots to discover

A bleak action-adventure set in a war-torn country that drops quest markers and hand-holding, so you navigate by clues, notes and conversations. Puzzles and tense melee fights against eerie creatures born of a mysterious calamity round it out.

Fatal Frame

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Instead of guns, you wield an antique camera to exorcise ghosts through the viewfinder. A haunted-mansion Japanese horror classic with thick atmosphere and tense, well-timed shots.

Shadow Man

Dark, serious atmosphere

As voodoo warrior Mike LeRoi you travel between the living world and Deadside to hunt serial killers and avert an apocalypse. A grim, interconnected 3D adventure with Metroidvania-style exploration and a genuinely disturbing atmosphere.

Darkwood

Dark, serious atmosphere

Darkwood is a bleak top-down survival horror where you scavenge a eerie, partly randomized forest by day and barricade your hideout against horrors by night. Its surreal atmosphere and deliberately cryptic story create constant dread.

DreadOut 2

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A survival horror adventure steeped in Indonesian ghost folklore. You hunt spirits with a smartphone camera, explore urban areas and fight in a supernatural parallel world.

Among the Trolls

Pure single-player experience

A first-person survival adventure set in the Finnish forests, where you uncover family secrets and troll folklore while staying alive in the wilderness. Little information is available on this unreleased game.

Depths of Sanity

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

An underwater metroidvania where you play Abe Douglas, exploring oceanic biomes, fighting monstrous bosses and unraveling what happened to your missing crew. The oppressive deep-sea mood and creeping madness define the adventure.

Tormented Souls

Dark, serious atmosphere

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.
