Dark Souls II
Dark Souls II is the third installment in the well-known Souls series.It’s a different game from all the others because of its directors.With Dark Souls II the main director and founder of Souls-like genre Hidetaka Miyazaki took place only as a supervisor of the project, leaving a place of the director of the game for two young video game designers Tomohiro Shibuya and Yui Tanimura.One could ask if the game is as good and beautiful as other past games in the Series and the answer would be that Dark Souls II is different yet deep and unforgiving as all the other titles in the series.The famous difficulty of previous games is still there but the world is much simpler yet connected and dangerous.Enemies still respond after death of a player but only about 15 times.After that they disappear forever.Boss battles are much simpler, this time focuses on many simpler bosses at a time instead of one powerful boss.
Dark Souls II is one of those games which were painfully downgraded in a favor of hardware of consoles, that means that players got less graphically advanced version than promised.Yet the game is interesting and deep and it’s definitely a must play for every Souls fan.

Undertale uses pixelated graphics and traditional mechanics of RPGs such as earning experience points, having an open world, and so on.As the game goes on, the player has to solve several puzzles and interact with NPCs.The battles in the game are represented using the bullet hell mini-games with the player having an option to choose where they want to spare their opponent or hit the enemy back.Monsters behavior depends on the player's actions: if one decides to use a peaceful approach it will be easier to dodge the enemies attacks and vice versa.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

The game supports modding, and allows user-created content alongside the free DLC Justine, telling a story of a female prisoner.Given how short the DLC story is - several possible endings are available.

But even if you find a way, the sensor that you rely on may break down, or you may run out of lures, even your drone's camera feed can start to fail. A favorite strategy can't be exploited for long, so you'll have to continually adapt.SurviveDuskers is set in a procedurally generated Universe, and when you die you lose everything.You not only need to worry about what hazards lay waiting for you in the derelicts, but also running out of fuel, or parts to modify your drones and ship.
You are alone, isolated in the dark reaches of space.Only by sifting through what ship logs remain un-corrupted can you piece together what happened.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines is a story-driven action-RPG based on table-top role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade, the part of the World of Darkness franchise.The game is setting a gothic urban fantasy where vampires, werewolves, and other supernatural beings live secretly by humans.The story follows the player character that gets turned into the vampire and becomes a member of Camarilla – a considerable vampire organization that tries to keep vampires’ existence in secret from ordinary people.It confronts Sabbat, an organization whose member believe that Vampires should let their inner beasts go wild no matter of people’s awareness.
The gameplay’s primary emphasis is variety in player’s action.The same goals can be achieved in several ways.Depending on the character’s abilities and clan affiliation, it can intimidate, seduce or convince NPC’s with words, use brute force or sneak in the shadows without being noticed.There are seven unique vampire clans from which player creates his character.They have different skills, supernatural powers, appearance, characteristics.Some of them affect gameplay in its unique way, e.g., vampires from Nosferatu clan are so deformed that they cannot be seen by ordinary people, forcing the player to rely on stealth and brute force rather than communication.

Silent Hill
Silent Hill is a survival horror video game for the PlayStation published by Konami and developed by Team Silent, a group in Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo.The first installment in the Silent Hill series, the game was released in North America in January 1999, and in Japan and Europe later that year.Silent Hill uses a third-person view, with real-time rendering of 3D environments.To mitigate limitations of the console hardware, developers liberally used fog and darkness to muddle the graphics.Unlike earlier survival horror games that focused on protagonists with combat training, the player character of Silent Hill is an "everyman".
The game follows Harry Mason as he searches for his missing adopted daughter in the eponymous fictional American town of Silent Hill; stumbling upon a cult conducting a ritual to revive a deity it worships, he discovers her true origin.Five game endings are possible, depending on actions taken by the player, including one joke ending.
Silent Hill received positive reviews from critics on its release and was commercially successful.It is considered a defining title in the survival horror genre, and is also considered by many to be one of the greatest video games ever made, moving away from B movie horror elements, toward a psychological style of horror emphasizing atmosphere.Various adaptations of Silent Hill have been released, including a 2001 visual novel, the 2006 feature film Silent Hill, and a 2009 reimagining of the game, titled Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.The game was followed by Silent Hill 2 in 2001.

Outlast
Cinematic gameplay is used to make a stylistic point, and this psychological horror game performs just that.Outlast follows the story of investigative journalist Miles Upshur, that got the lead on the inhuman experiments, performed on the asylum patients.Outlast forces players to run away from danger, simply because there is no combat system.All Miles can do is to document what is happening inside the Mount Massive Asylum.Players do not have a flashlight, only a night vision camera, which constantly requires batteries in order to function.Miles will be pursued through the halls, rooms, yards and enclosed laboratories by distressed and aggressive inhabitants.Over the course of the game, players will have to solve puzzles by locating and collecting items and travel through the Asylum with realistic movement animation and horror sting sound effect, in order to make players sympathize with the protagonists.

Black Mesa
Black Mesa is the original Half-Life as if it was made in the 21st century using modern graphics and updated mechanics.This remake of the classic game was envisioned by a group of enthusiasts, approved by Valve, and spent eight years in the making.The name, Black Mesa, refers to the secret research facility where the game is set.The player assumes the role of Gordon Freeman, a scientist caught in the midst of an experiment gone wrong.An anomaly breaks out, and hordes of monsters invade Black Mesa.
While Black Mesa and Half-Life are basically the same game, there are many subtle changes besides the improved graphics.The amount of ammo has changed, as well as the order in which the weapons appear in the game.The iconic crowbar is found in a different place.There are also new options like zooming in and out and reprogramming gun turrets.Some of the levels were shortened, and some of the monsters became stronger.NPCs became more intelligent, and they will perform certain actions to aid Gordon.Design of the characters also became more varied, and women finally appeared in the game.Black Mesa also introduced an achievement system and a multiplayer mode.

Don't Starve Together
Don't Starve Together is surrealistic and grim survival game made up for six people simultaneously.Initially, Don't Starve is a single-player game with a core mechanic of going through various problems of your character.You have to sleep and eat well.Also, you have to keep your mental health all right and don't go completely mad at a situation, when these dreadful and twisted creatures are running towards you to tear apart.It seems like the world of Don't Starve is heavily inspired by Tim Burton, having a very grotesque yet creepy and bizarre-looking monsters and locations with an atmospheric soundtrack.
While heading to multiplayer, you will experience every single problem from a singles game.The game exploits pretty similar mechanic to Minecraft - randomly generated world, surviving as a top priority for the gamer.With the only difference - if you die, you die.Permanent death of your characters increases the grim and tense atmosphere of the game itself, making the process challenging and creepy.Just remember.Don't Starve.

Limbo
This popular 2D puzzle-platformer creates the atmosphere of isolation, where the player alone can guide the nameless protagonist to his destination.Hostile environments and one-hit deaths may seem difficult, but the game implements a fair amount of checkpoints.The monochrome color palette showcases cartoony proportions of every living thing while making lack of details threatening.Limbo shows you exactly what you encounter, but never how it looks.
Limbo uses the atmosphere and sound design of the horror genre while avoiding tropes of the modern horror games.The overarching theme and unique style compensated for the rather short game with an abrupt ending, making Limbo one of the most impactful games for the genre.
The simple controls and easy-to-pick-up mechanics help to make a clear distinction, which part of the stage players can interact with, and which part can lead to the quick death.Even though the game is in black and white, this separation is intuitive and natural, so the player would know exactly where to go or what to do.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
This post-apocalyptic game that spawned the S.T.A.L.K.E.R.franchise is inspired by (but not really based on) the 'Roadside Picnic' novel by brothers Strugatsky and Tarkovsky's movie 'Stalker', borrowing some of the terms and aesthetics from both.S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is set in Ukraine, in the infamous Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.Several parts of the open-world setting were modeled after the real Chernobyl surroundings, including the power plant and the city of Pripyat, although designers took some liberties.The bleak environment and dark ambient music help to create an unsettling atmosphere of this place.
According to the backstory, in 2006, the second Chernobyl disaster occurred, turning the surrounding area into post-apocalyptic ruins, full of grotesque mutants and time-space anomalies.The "stalkers" in this world are the explorers who wander The Zone in search of valuable loot.You play as the Marked One, a stalker who lost his memory.All that remains of his past is a memo that says “Kill Strelok”.The Marked One will have to learn more about himself, Strelok, The Zone, and its mysteries.The plot is non-linear, and there are multiple endings that depend on the quests you completed earlier.

Her Story is the first game made by Sam Barlow since his departure from Climax Studios.He wanted to create a game which focuses on story.He decided to use live action footage and created a police procedural game.In order to make it as much realistic as possible, Barlow watched lots of real police interviews, by doing so he discovered that there is a lot of ambiguity in those files and he wanted to incorporate that into the game as well.
The game was praised because of its original narrative, character performance and interesting gameplay mechanics.

DOOM II
The game from the legendary programmers John Carmack and John Romero, who worked together with American McGee, on the first-person shooter game that will run on anything: from mobile devices to engineering calculators.The game became the second in the series Doom, received improved multiplayer, graphics and improved optimization.
Gameplay-wise game is not so different from its predecessor.The developers decided to take advantage of the progress of the computer hardware to fine-tune their game engine.The player still took control of the nameless space marine, which traveled through 30 non-linear levels.A level is considered to be completed after the player finds the coded doors.A rich arsenal of weapons and a variety of models of enemies will not get bored.
The plot continues the story of the first part: after defeating the invasion of demons on the moons of Mars and returning from Hell, the protagonist finds the Earth captured by the creatures that he just conquered.A solo company can be fashioned alone, and in multiplayer, to battle with friends today: for the game, there is a huge amount of third-party mods to play online without using of archaic dial-up connection.

SOMA
SOMA is a sci-fi survival horror that makes you rethink the description of death.You play as Simon Jarrett who was injured in a crash accident and agreed for an experimental operation on his brain.He wakes up at an abandoned underwater facility full of mutants.Trying to figure out what’s going on, Simon finds Catherine Chun, a scientist, who tells him about the technology of copying the human personality.
The gameplay is based on exploration and puzzle solving.There's no combat, and you are meant to avoid enemies and act stealthily.To progress through the story, you need to search for clues, read multiple notes and solve puzzles.
Though there are monsters in SOMA, it frightens with its atmosphere in the first place.A dark, abandoned station with dead people, uncertainty and the lack of any understanding of what is waiting for you is scarier than screamers and blood rivers.Moral choices you have to make don’t affect the story much: instead, they change your attitude to the events, so it’s you who develops through the game.

Blood
You'll battle cultists, gargoyles, zombies, hellhounds, and an unholy host of other terrors in your quest to stop Tchernobog.You must not only defeat the Cabal - you must scour its dread name from human memory.If that means eradicating everyone and everything the Cabal has ever tainted, so be it.Of course, you'll first have to make your way through fortresses, castles, mines, mansions, and estates guarded and kept by Tchernobog's malevolent servants.Fortunately, it is wits that make the hero, and although you're in serious danger of losing yours, you've got enough left to improvise some pretty effective tools of destruction.Aerosol hairspray can be frightening enough on its own, but apply it to a lighter flame and you've got an instant flamethrower (kids, don't try this at home!).Likewise, a flare gun can brighten your prospects considerably against even the grimmest odds, which is to say nothing for shotguns, Tommy guns, and dynamite.Who knows, you may even find that there are some spirits on your side when you find yourself clutching a voodoo doll.
