Penumbra: Black Plague

Sci-fi setting

A claustrophobic first-person horror game set in an underground research facility, where you survive through physics-based puzzles and hiding rather than weapons. Atmosphere and fear of the unknown matter far more than combat.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location

Pure single-player experience

A story-heavy entry in the horror series: as a technician in an underground facility you face short, tense nights with varied tasks rather than just watching cameras. The dark tale of Circus Baby and the animatronics drives the experience.

Wick

Lots to discover

You explore a dark forest alone at night with only a candle, hunting for the ghosts of lost children. Your candlelight is both protection and a limited resource, creating constant tension.

Signalis

Sci-fi setting

A classic survival horror game with scarce resources, inventory puzzles and a cryptic, melancholic sci-fi story. Its blend of retro 3D aesthetics, anime-inspired bleakness and cosmic dread creates a dense, unsettling atmosphere.

Penumbra: Overture

Calm and deliberate

A first-person survival horror set in a desolate Greenland mine, where you're nearly defenseless and rely on physics-based puzzles and hiding to survive. Its oppressive atmosphere and mouse-driven object interaction define the experience.

Slender: The Arrival

Calm and deliberate

A short first-person horror trip where you gather clues through dark forests and abandoned buildings, weaponless, while the Slender Man closes in. Tension comes from darkness, a flickering flashlight and sudden jump scares.

Routine

Sci-fi setting

A tense first-person horror trek through an abandoned lunar base styled after an 80s vision of the future, where you dodge hostile machines with a clunky tool while uncovering what happened to the crew. With almost no HUD, it relies on atmosphere, sound design and dread.

Narcosis

Vast, open spaces

A claustrophobic underwater horror trek: as a stranded industrial diver you push through darkness, dwindling oxygen and creeping madness at the ocean floor to reach the surface.
