Amnesia: The Bunker

Historical setting

A first-person horror game in a WW1 bunker where you survive with scarce resources, a hand-cranked light and an unpredictable monster stalking you. The semi-open, systemic layout lets you improvise routes, hiding spots and puzzle solutions.

Gloomwood

Dread and tension

Gloomwood is a stealth survival horror set in a cursed Victorian city, drawing on immersive sims and classics like Thief and Resident Evil. You sneak, scrounge scarce resources and use eccentric weapons while exploring a dark, secret-filled world.

The Saboteur

Historical setting

As an Irish racer turned saboteur, you fight through Nazi-occupied 1940s France with gunplay, stealth and demolition. Its signature touch is the art style: areas under Nazi control are black and white, and color returns as the resistance grows.

Anomalith

Dread and tension

A survival third-person shooter set in Showa-era Japan, blending liminal-space atmosphere with retro aesthetics. A girl searches for her missing friend in a world warped by anomalies.

Clive Barker's Undying

Strong, story-driven narrative

An atmospheric horror shooter set in 1920s Ireland, where Patrick Galloway investigates a family curse. First-person gunplay mixes with spellcasting, gloomy manors and a creepy tale penned by Clive Barker.

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth

Strong, story-driven narrative

A first-person Lovecraft horror that blends shooting, stealth and desperate escapes with a minimalist, HUD-free approach. As unstable detective Jack Walters you uncover the horrors of Innsmouth while your sanity steadily erodes.

Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi

Historical setting

A classic horror shooter set in 1912: as the bride's brother you arrive at a Romanian castle where the wedding party is menaced by dark secrets and vampires. Scarce resources and exploration drive the tension.

Thief II: The Metal Age

Strong, story-driven narrative

Master thief Garrett sneaks through a steampunk-tinged city across large, open-ended missions full of guards, shadows and loot. Stealth is the core mechanic: light, noise and clever gadgets decide whether you succeed.

The Sinking City

Historical setting

As a 1920s private eye in the half-drowned town of Oakmont, you solve eerie cases by reconstructing crime scenes and drawing your own conclusions, with little hand-holding, in a Lovecraftian nightmare. Thick atmosphere and morally grey decisions carry the game, while the combat is serviceable rather than great.
