10 More Video Games You Should Never Play Alone
1. Condemned: Criminal Origins
Of all the games we didn’t include in our first go around this was the most requested, so your wish is my terrifying command, here’s Condemned: Criminal Origins. A game you should not play alone. Or at all. Unless you’re a sucker for a horrifying time.
The 2005 survival horror from Monolith is not only infamously unnerving, it was straight up banned in some countries. The game follows SCU agent Ethan Thomas as he investigates a number of condemned buildings, seeking the person who framed him for murder.
You frequently come face-to-face with the psychotically violent inhabitants of Metro who are just as likely to attack each other as they are you, which is somehow just as if not more disturbing. It becomes clear something else appears to be driving the increased crime rate and brutality of the city’s recent killings. Condemned: Criminal Origins is wildly violent and never lets you get comfortable, no matter how familiar you become with its combat or world.
In particular, The spine-chilling department store level complete with live mannequins is absolutely going to test your limits in noping out.
