Batman: Arkham Asylum

Interconnected level design

As Batman, you fight through Arkham Asylum after the Joker seizes it, mixing rhythmic freeflow brawling with predatory stealth from the shadows. The dark, interconnected asylum is packed with Riddler secrets and nightmarish Scarecrow sequences.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night

Dense, handcrafted world

The spiritual successor to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night sends you as Miriam through a sprawling gothic demon castle packed with secrets. Absorbing shards from defeated enemies unlocks hundreds of abilities, while weapons and crafting let you shape your own build.

American McGee's Alice

Dread and tension

A twisted, nightmarish Wonderland where a traumatized Alice fights through with a vorpal knife and strange weapons, mixing action, platforming and puzzles. Its gothic, surreal art direction makes it unforgettable.

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain

Dread and tension

As the freshly resurrected vampire Kain, you slash through the gloomy top-down land of Nosgoth, collecting spells, weapons and shapeshifting forms. Famed for its gothic atmosphere, richly voiced dramatic storytelling and morally grey tale of vengeance.

Silent Hill 3

Strong soundtrack

Heather is dragged into a nightmarish otherworld where a mall, a subway and a hospital rot into rust, flesh and blood. Disturbing imagery, Akira Yamaoka's oppressive soundtrack and cryptic puzzles carry the game, while clumsy, desperate combat keeps every encounter tense.
