2009PlayStation

  • Post-apocalyptic setting
  • Open world
  • Jumping and platforming

As electrified superhero Cole McGrath you parkour across a quarantined, ruined city, hurling lightning and choosing through a karma system whether to become a hero or a villain. Your choices reshape your powers and how the city treats you.

I Am Alive

Dark, serious atmosphere

A grim survival adventure set in a dust-shrouded ruined city where limited stamina, scarce resources and risky climbing define the experience. Instead of constant gunplay it relies on bluffing with an empty weapon and tension while searching for the hero's family.

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A linear action-adventure loosely based on Journey to the West, following brawler Monkey and tech-savvy Trip through an overgrown, mech-ruled future America. Its strength lies in expressive performances and a touching, reluctant partnership rather than mechanical depth.

Ghost Song

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An atmospheric 2D Metroidvania set on the lonely moon Lorian V, where you awaken as a Deadsuit, explore eerie caverns, gain new abilities and uncover cosmic secrets. Fluid combat and a moody sci-fi setting define the adventure.

Infamous: Second Son

Open world

As Delsin Rowe you tear through an occupied Seattle with swappable superpowers like smoke, neon and video. A karma system lets you choose between becoming a hero or a villain.

Haak

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Haak is a pixel-art Metroidvania platformer set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where you unlock new abilities to explore hidden corners of the world, fight enemies and uncover its secrets.

The Final Station

Dark, serious atmosphere

An atmospheric 2D side-scroller where you ride a train through a collapsing world, scavenge stations for supplies, fight off the infected, and keep your passengers alive. The shift between tense, ammo-scarce station raids and quiet train upkeep creates a bleak, oppressive mood.

Carrion

Dark, serious atmosphere

You play a shapeless alien creature breaking out of a research facility and hunting humans in a reverse horror twist. Its Metroidvania structure, fluid tentacle movement and unlockable abilities make growing and devouring everything in your path the core thrill.

Stray

Sci-fi setting

You play a stray cat lost in a decaying, robot-inhabited neon city, climbing, sneaking and poking around to uncover what happened to it. Its charming feline interactions and dense cyberpunk atmosphere make this short adventure stand out.
