Soma

Like Silent Hill 2, Soma plunges you into a deeply unsettling world where the horror is psychological and existential, forcing you to question reality and identity while navigating a decaying, mysterious environment.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

Shifting to a first-person perspective, Resident Evil 7 recaptures the claustrophobic, survival-horror tension and puzzle-solving of classic horror games, much like Silent Hill 2's focus on vulnerability and environmental challenges.

85% Match

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Amnesia strips away combat entirely, much like how Silent Hill 2 often makes combat a last resort, forcing you to rely on stealth, environmental interaction, and puzzle-solving to survive a truly terrifying psychological ordeal.
