Games Like Hektor (2026)

Shared: Psychological Horror, Sanity Mechanic

Four friends, one haunted building, a spirit box, and someone who absolutely will not stop talking near the Yokai. If that sentence sounds fun to you, you already know the answer.

Shared: Psychological Horror, First-Person Horror

The dating-sim wrapper is bait, and MiSide knows it. What starts as idle chores with an anime girl becomes a genre-hopping psychological horror that two developers built better than most studios manage with a full team.

Shared: Atmospheric Soundtrack

Few two-person studios have conjured a world this dense and this lonely. Hollow Knight is 40-plus hours of hand-drawn melancholy that will humble you, haunt you, and refuse to let go.

Shared: No Combat

Grab three friends and loot haunted moons for a faceless corporation. Lethal Company is chaotic co-op horror that thrives on everything going catastrophically wrong.

Shared: Sanity Mechanic

Crash a plane, lose your son, then spend 30+ hours building spike traps and slowly losing your mind to cannibals. Solo or with up to 8 friends online, this one earns its Metacritic 83.
