looking for something with bad vibes and a good story, games with a similar feel to:

  • Drakengard 1

  • Silent Hill 2

  • Signalis.

  • Spec ops: The line

  • Hotline Miami

edit: to be more specific, looking for something with that “Heart of Darkness” decent into madness vibe

    Games I would recommend:

    Lunacid- it is a dungeon crawler inspired by old fromsoft games like kings field and shadow tower

    Northern Journey- It’s a strange, lonely, game with lots of arachnids that is pretty fun and beautiful.

    Pseudoregalia- it’s a 3D platformer metriodvania inspired by both Mario 64, dark souls, and hollow night.

      I played Pseudoregalia, actually think its really good but not exactly what I’m looking for here. I’ll take a look at those other two though

        Oh also maybe try out Fear and Hunger, I haven’t played it but I’ve heard it’s very dark and bad vibey.

          I played a bit of the first game but I wasnt a huge fan, its not psycological horror as much as its just trying to psych you out. Maybe two steps above a cartel behading montage as a game.

        Awesome!!! Out of the other two I think that Lunacid is closer to what you are looking for
