Brings what grabs you about Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2: a sci-fi setting, a strong story and a dark atmosphere.

A 90s pre-rendered sci-fi adventure in which you solve puzzles in a secret Russian base and fight rail-shooter-style sequences in a cockpit to stop a world-ending superweapon.

The Turing Test

Linear, curated structure

A first-person puzzle game set on Jupiter's moon Europa, where you play engineer Ava Turing solving chambers built on energy and physics puzzles. Along the way it reflects on artificial intelligence, morality and what consciousness really means.

Exapunks

Challenging difficulty

A programming puzzle game set in a 1990s hacker world, where you write assembly-like scripts for tiny spider-bots that crawl through other people's networks. It pairs a grim cyberpunk story about a deadly virus with a charming zine-style manual.

Five Nights at Freddy's 4

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A minimalist survival horror where you play a child defending your bedroom, doors and closet from animatronics using only sound cues and a flashlight. Precise timing and steady nerves decide whether you last until 6 AM.

BioForge

Sci-fi setting

A 1995 cyber-thriller in which you play a half-human, half-machine prisoner breaking out and uncovering your lost identity. It mixes item puzzles with melee and gun combat, using early 3D textured characters over pre-rendered backgrounds.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A story-heavy entry in the horror series: as a technician in an underground facility you face short, tense nights with varied tasks rather than just watching cameras. The dark tale of Circus Baby and the animatronics drives the experience.

Deliver Us the Moon

Sci-fi setting

A story-driven sci-fi adventure where you play a lone astronaut exploring abandoned lunar bases, solving environmental puzzles and uncovering what happened to humanity's last hope. Atmospheric and linear, focused on mystery and narrative rather than combat.

Five Nights at Freddy's 2

Challenging difficulty

As a night guard in a pizzeria you watch cameras and survive until morning while a larger, more aggressive set of animatronics hunts you. Jump scares, limited resources and tense timing define it, with scattered lore hints on the side.

The Entropy Centre

Linear, curated structure

A first-person puzzle game where a time-rewinding gun lets you send objects back through their past to solve clever challenges. It wraps this in a sci-fi mystery set in a strange research facility, with a chatty AI companion.
