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.

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.

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.

Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation

Historical setting

Lara Croft explores ancient Egyptian tombs full of traps, tricky platforming and sprawling puzzles that sometimes span multiple levels. The classic, blocky Tomb Raider style favors exploration and head-scratching over pure gunplay.

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.
