Games Like Paranautical Activity: Deluxe Atonement Edition (2026)

Shared: Permadeath

Surviving alone was already brutal - surviving with friends who make catastrophic decisions is another beast entirely. A deep, unforgiving co-op survival game that rewards patience, preparation, and someone on the team who knows what a Science Machine actually does.

Shared: Permadeath, Run-Based

A top-down bullet-hell roguelike that has eaten more hours than any shooter I've touched this year, and it controls like a twin-stick arcade cab running at a locked 60fps.

Shared: Permadeath

Stress kills faster than swords here, and your Vestal will crack before your Leper lands a hit. Whether that loop hooks you or breaks you is the only question worth asking.

Shared: Permadeath

Survival horror that treats your death as a foregone conclusion and dares you to postpone it as long as possible. The depth here will outlast most RPGs you own.

Shared: Run-Based

A punishing roguelike action-platformer where every run tries to kill you faster than the last. Survive long enough and you might just become unstoppable.
