Dark survival horror stories

If you want helpless horror where you hide instead of fight, these seven games trap you in a bunker, a castle and a flooded station where light, fear and supplies decide if you get out.

These seven games from Frictional Games put you somewhere you cannot overpower what stalks you, so you slip past it, sprint from it and think your way forward. Amnesia: The Dark Descent leaves you exposed in a crumbling castle where darkness unsettles your mind, SOMA strands you in a deep-sea station full of broken machines and difficult choices, and Amnesia: The Bunker arms you with almost nothing while you ration fuel and supplies. Expect careful exploring, puzzle solving and fear management across the set.
