System Shock

Interconnected level design

This remake of the cult classic leaves you alone on the Citadel space station, ruled by the deranged AI SHODAN. You explore sprawling interconnected levels, fight to survive, solve puzzles and piece together the story through audio logs in a bleak cyberpunk atmosphere.

NieR

Boss fights as highlights

A bleak action RPG about a father who will do anything to save his sick daughter. It mixes hack-and-slash, bullet-hell and text-adventure moments, carried by a moving story, multiple endings and an outstanding soundtrack.

Tomb Raider: Anniversary

Interconnected level design

A reimagined version of the original Tomb Raider with redesigned levels where Lara Croft climbs, leaps and solves tricky environmental puzzles in ancient tombs. Occasional gunfights against animals and enemies break up the exploration.

Praey for the Gods

Boss fights as highlights

A lone hero crosses a frozen, dying island and must take down towering god-like colossi in the vein of Shadow of the Colossus. Cold, stamina and survival pressure turn every expedition into a harsh trial.

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.

Sulfur

Interconnected level design

A retro-flavored first-person shooter with roguelike elements: you push through procedurally built levels, collect loot, upgrade weapons and use special powers. A grim mood and the search for answers pull you ever deeper.

Boneworks

Shooting and gunplay

A VR adventure built around a thorough physics simulation, where weapons, objects and your own body are handled physically to beat enemies and puzzles. Climbing, throwing and melee combat feel tangible and experimental.

Katanaut

Boss fights as highlights

A fast-paced action roguelite set on a collapsing space station, where fluid blade combat and powerful abilities help you fight eldritch horrors. It blends roguelike, metroidvania and soulslike elements into demanding runs.
