Layers of Fear: Inheritance
5.2 Game Score
Layers of Fear: Inheritance is a full-scope story-driven DLC for the first-person horror game, Layers of Fear, by Blooper Team.

Players don’t control the painter himself, but his daughter – she learns that after the death of her father, the house now belongs to her.
Agony
5.2 Game Score
A survival horror game developed by the independent Madmind Studio. The player assumes the role of an unfortunate man who went to hell for unknown reasons.

The gameplay of Agony is based on exploration of underground depths and solving logic puzzles. Since the hero does not have any combat abilities, we have to avoid confrontation with hellish beasts.

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
5.1 Game Score
Another spin-off of the Resident Evil series, realized by Capcom in the convention of a target on rails.
