Severance: Blade of Darkness

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A brutal third-person swordfighting game where you play a Knight, Barbarian, Dwarf or Amazon and carve through enemies with heavy combos and gory, weighty combat on the hunt for a Necromancer. Its demanding, physical combat and grim dark-fantasy mood made it a cult classic.

Chaos Legion

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A gothic hack-and-slash in which the knight Sieg summons legions of demonic creatures to fight alongside him against swarms of enemies. Combat is fast and stylish, and the story follows a forbidden book and a fallen friend.

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A first-person action RPG on the Source engine, famous for its physics-driven melee where kicking foes into spikes, cutting ropes, or toppling crates is half the fun. Play as warrior, mage, or assassin and solve each encounter your own brutal way.

Shadow Fight 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A 2D silhouette fighting game that blends duels with RPG progression: you collect weapons and armor, upgrade skills and moves, and take down opponents in one-on-one fights and boss battles.

Exanima

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Exanima is an unforgiving isometric dungeon-crawling RPG built on a realistic physics simulation where weight, momentum and positioning decide every fight. Combat is slow, risky and demands careful, deliberate play.

The Vale: Shadow of the Crown

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You play a blind warrior who fights almost entirely by sound, using enemy breathing, footsteps and weapon clashes to read the fight. An unusual audio-driven action adventure that makes medieval combat something you hear rather than see.

Down to Hell

Melee combat with weapons or fists

You carve your way as a lone swordsman through hordes of hellish demons in a fast, dynamic slasher. A heavy metal attitude gives every fight a loud, brutal punch.

Curse of the Dead Gods

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An isometric action roguelike where you fight through a cursed temple full of traps and monsters. Risky curses, swappable weapons and fast melee combat make every run a gamble between greed and survival.
