Games Like WASTED (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.

Few games from 2012 still live rent-free in people's heads the way this one does. Brutal, precise, and stranger than it has any right to be.

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.
