I would like to hear recommendations for good games similar to:
Clive Barker's Jericho
Inner Chains
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth
Agony
Outlast
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
I know there are many games like these out there, so to narrow possible suggestions I will add following:
* need to have action gameplay elements, so "Walking Simulators" or puzzle games are not what i want, games like Amnesia: A machine for Pigs or Dear Esther are not what I am interested in. I guess it is debatable how much actual gameplay there is in Outlast or Amnesia Dark Descent, but still, they were very engaging, not just walking and looking at backgrounds
* would be best if the game had animations for hands and other body parts of the main character, for example when picking up objects, opening doors, fighting, etc. games with "invisible hands" (like Amnesia A machine for pigs , mentioned above) are not very immersive
* non-corridor level design is a big plus, the less it feels like "on the rails", the better
* fantasy/sci-fi/fictional setting is a big plus
I will be very grateful for your suggestions , fellow players. Thank you!
