Stasis

Sci-fi setting

A grim sci-fi horror point-and-click adventure in an isometric view: aboard a seemingly abandoned spaceship you solve classic item and computer puzzles while piecing together a disturbing story.

Inside

Sneaking and hiding

A wordless, oppressive puzzle-platformer in which a boy slips through a bleak dystopia, controlling bodies with his mind along the way. Masterful atmosphere and a disturbing finale make it unforgettable.

Penumbra: Black Plague

Sneaking and hiding

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.

Amnesia: Rebirth

Sneaking and hiding

A first-person horror adventure set in the 1937 Algerian desert, where you play the defenseless Tasi, hiding from monsters, solving puzzles and slowly uncovering a disturbing truth. Its strengths are dense atmosphere and a dark, emotional story.

Murdered: Soul Suspect

Strong, story-driven narrative

As a murdered detective, you roam a gloomy Salem as a ghost, possessing the living and piecing together clues to solve your own killing. An atmospheric, story-driven investigation adventure with light stealth encounters against demons.

The Talos Principle

Emotional impact

A meditative first-person puzzler where you play an android solving laser and block puzzles across ancient-looking ruins while grappling with questions of consciousness, humanity and free will. Brilliantly designed puzzles meet philosophical terminal conversations and a haunting atmosphere.

Conarium

Lore and world history

An atmospheric first-person Lovecraftian adventure in which you play Frank Gilman, unraveling the fate of a doomed Antarctic expedition. Puzzles, eerie dreamlike realms and a bleak story take center stage rather than combat.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

Lavish presentation

A claustrophobic first-person reboot of the series that traps you in the rotting Baker family estate in Louisiana, scraping by on scarce ammo while stalked by relentless hosts and solving puzzles. It trades action spectacle for intimate, grimy dread.

Madison

Strong, story-driven narrative

A first-person psychological horror game where an instant camera bridges the human world and the beyond. You develop photos yourself to solve disturbing puzzles while surviving a deeply unsettling atmosphere.
