15 Most Terrifying Moments In Non-Horror Video Games

15. Atlanteans - Tomb Raider

I feel like in a game called Tomb Raider, we should have seen a weird level like this coming, yet meeting these so-called Atlanteans was a truly bizarre moment.

The whole level was bizarre: an underground Sphinx, invisible platforms, skinless pterodactyls, horsemen and even Lara's doppelganger, who was distracting for a whole other reason.

The level was recreated in Tomb Raider: Anniversary, but I feel the old design choices and graphics of the PS1 original made everything feel a hell of a lot more uncomfortable, the freaky designs plucking away at the fear string in our bodies.

It's not how I imagined Atlantis would look like, and to be honest it seems more like the Devil's summer home.
