Brings what grabs you about Lunacid: lots to discover, melee combat with weapons or fists and an open world.

The genre-defining Soulslike: a bleak, intricately interconnected world of punishing combat, hidden paths and bosses that demand patience and precise timing. The remaster adds sharper visuals and includes the Artorias of the Abyss expansion.

King's Field

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An early real-time first-person dungeon crawler widely seen as a forerunner of the Souls games. Slow, deliberate combat, a cryptic world and a lonely atmosphere make for a grim, unforgiving journey of discovery.

Salt and Sanctuary

Dark, serious atmosphere

A 2D Soulslike wrapped in Metroidvania design: stamina-driven combat, punishing bosses and a huge skill tree in a grim, interconnected world. Its hand-drawn look and rewarding exploration set it apart.

Queen's Domain

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A retro-styled fantasy action RPG with punishing combat and exploration built around traversal. You search the mysterious Isle of Neasied for your missing father and uncover the secrets of the stirring Queen.

Gothic

Open world

As a nameless prisoner dumped into a mining colony sealed by a magic barrier, you claw your way up from nobody with no quest markers, joining one of three camps and learning skills only from trainers. Its harsh, believable world full of gruff characters and its unforgiving, clunky combat made it a cult classic.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night

Fantasy setting

The spiritual successor to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night sends you as Miriam through a sprawling gothic demon castle packed with secrets. Absorbing shards from defeated enemies unlocks hundreds of abilities, while weapons and crafting let you shape your own build.

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain

Dark, serious atmosphere

As the freshly resurrected vampire Kain, you slash through the gloomy top-down land of Nosgoth, collecting spells, weapons and shapeshifting forms. Famed for its gothic atmosphere, richly voiced dramatic storytelling and morally grey tale of vengeance.

Shadow Tower

Dark, serious atmosphere

You climb a grim first-person tower full of monsters and winding floors, where every fight with heavy weapons demands patience. Often seen as a precursor to the Souls series, it rewards you for feeling your way through its mapless corridors with hard-won discoveries.

Momodora II

Melee combat with weapons or fists

In Momodora II you explore a tightly knotted pixel-art fantasy world that opens up through shortcuts and hidden paths. It drops the arcade-style progression of its predecessor in favor of rewarding curious exploration.
