8 Recent Video Games That Utterly Messed With Your Mind
4. The Sinking City
When you're dealing with a video game centered on the occult, hallucinations, and the coming of Cthulhu, is it any wonder that The Sinking City is a title that completely and utterly messes with your mind?
For those looking to visit the damp and dour city of Oakmont, you best be prepared to have your mental fortitude tested and then some, as the horrifying events Reed witnesses will eat away at his sanity, causing in-game effects such as the map to become distorted and his vision blurry.
And before you think you can just blast away all the horrors in front of him, The Sinking City posits an interesting dilemma, in that thanks to shipping issues, the currency of the city is now bullets, meaning with each shot you're eroding your chance to heal and resupply later!
Throughout the game, you're beset with visions, horrors, supernatural entities, and of course the literal monster of madness himself, and as such you're going to be left a gibbering wreck at the end of things, even with the "good" ending.
