Games Like Cats and the Other Lives (2026)

Shared: Linear Narrative, Collectibles

Four to five hours of pure atmospheric dread that will stick in your memory far longer than its runtime, if slow-burn horror puzzle-platformers are your thing, this is required playing.

Shared: Linear Narrative

A wordless, dystopian 2D platformer that pulls you through its world like a current you can't swim against. Short, precise, and hard to shake.

Shared: Single Playthrough

You are Miles Upshur, a journalist with a camcorder and zero combat skills, trapped inside a psychiatric asylum that is very much still occupied.

GRIS is a wordless platformer about grief told through watercolor animation and a swelling score. Quiet, intentional, and unlike most things on Steam.

Shared: Single Playthrough

Rats, plague, the Inquisition, and two kids with nothing but a sling and each other. If grim medieval atmosphere and a story that actually lands are your thing, this one punches well above its budget.
