  • Choices with consequences
  • Strong, story-driven narrative
  • Dark, serious atmosphere

Geralt's first outing stands out for its mature, morally grey world where decisions often pay off hours later. Its quirky rhythm-based combat with stances and potions takes getting used to, but the Slavic-flavored atmosphere is unforgettable.

Vampyr

Dark, serious atmosphere

As a doctor turned vampire in flu-ravaged 1918 London, you choose which citizens to heal and which to feed on for power, and those choices visibly shape the city's districts. Brooding gothic atmosphere and moral dilemmas take centre stage, backed by real-time action combat.

The Blood of Dawnwalker

Dark, serious atmosphere

A grim open-world action RPG set in medieval Europe, where Coen is a human by day and a vampire by night. That shift shapes how you fight and explore, and your choices steer the fight to save his family.

Dread Delusion

Lots to discover

A dark open-world RPG with a deliberately retro low-poly look, set on floating continents. Strange locations, occult secrets and world-changing choices reward free-form exploration.

Weird West

Strong character progression

Weird West is a dark Western fantasy immersive-sim RPG from ex-Arkane developers, where you play several outcasts in turn. The world reacts lastingly to your decisions, and combat mixes guns, magic and environmental tricks with a slow-time ability.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

Dark, serious atmosphere

Geralt of Rivia is drawn into a web of regicide and political intrigue, and one early decision splits the entire second act into completely different locations and storylines. Demanding real-time combat and a grim, morally grey world define the experience.

Gothic

Lots to discover

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.

Planescape: Torment

Lots to discover

A text-heavy cult RPG where you play an immortal amnesiac wandering the bizarre city of Sigil, uncovering the sins of your past lives. Dialogue, philosophy and unforgettable companions matter far more than combat.
