Scary extraction hidden gems
Dark zones, growling things and a backpack full of loot you could lose make these extraction shooters tense. In CONVRGENCE you explore a shifting zone alongside a dog and try to leave before dark brings hunters, while Active Matter sends you after strange material among rivals and creatures, and Deadline Escape keeps you counting down against zombies and bosses. These hidden gems let you plan a route, grab what you can carry and decide when to run for the exit.
