The Secret World

Strong character progression

A modern-day MMO where myths, conspiracies and Lovecraftian horror are real, famous for investigation missions that demand genuine puzzle-solving and even real-world research. It pairs a flexible classless ability-wheel system with eerie atmosphere and sharply written, quirky characters.

Silent Hill: Origins

Puzzles and brain teasers

A prequel to the first Silent Hill, in which trucker Travis Grady shifts between the real town and its nightmare twin, solving puzzles and scraping through clunky melee fights. Oppressive atmosphere and disturbing monsters are the main draw.

Resident Evil

Puzzles and brain teasers

The survival horror blueprint: scarce ammo, tight inventory and interlocking puzzles in a zombie-infested mansion, with fixed camera angles building constant dread and a campy charm.

The Sinking City

Puzzles and brain teasers

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.

Arx Fatalis

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A first-person RPG set in an underground fantasy world where the sun has died. It stands out for its gesture-drawn rune spellcasting, highly interactive environments and gloomy cavernous atmosphere.

Silent Hill f

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Silent Hill f moves survival horror to 1960s rural Japan, where young Hinako fights through a town overgrown by crimson flowers. Ryukishi07's story explores social pressure and transformation across multiple endings, backed by melee-heavy combat built on dodges and counters.

Silent Hill

Puzzles and brain teasers

As ordinary father Harry Mason, you search a fog-shrouded town for your missing daughter and slip into a nightmarish otherworld. Oppressive fog, unsettling industrial sound design and cryptic puzzles make this a defining psychological horror classic with multiple endings.

Silver Pines

Puzzles and brain teasers

A classic-style survival horror set in a small American town, mixing scarce resources, puzzles and interconnected exploration into a grim mystery about redemption.

Vampire Hunter D

Melee combat with weapons or fists
