Alien: Isolation
Not only one of the best horror games in the past decade, but also an amazing sequel to one of the best horror movies ever made. Taking place after the events of Ridley Scott’s Alien, Isolation expertly captures the helplessness that film’s titular monster instills in its victims. For the majority of Isolation, you will not have any way to fight back against the monster, only hide and hope for the best. It’s utterly horrifying in ways few games are.
