Forums - Gaming Discussion - I Need a Lovecraftian Game. (or another horror title...)

Could someone please recommend me a Lovecraftian horror game primarily on a PlayStation system?  But there is also my Wii and DS to consider.  Yes, there is a Cthullu game on the 360, but that isn't an option right now.

Some of the games I already have that are Lovecraftian inspired (best to my knowledge) are Darkest Dungeon and Bloodborne.  Besides Darkest Dungeon, are there any other dungeon crawlers that are Lovecraftian?  I'm also compemplating of playing Corpse Party and Outlast.  Lately, I've been playing colorful and "safe" titles such as Neptunia and LEGO Dimensions.  But I'm looking for a change of pace in the form of something horrific and would appreciate your suggestions.  Again, perferably Lovecraftian inspired, and absolutely no RE.  Thanks.

That's one I regretfully missed and wished Nintendo would do a remaster.  Is it on the VC?



Alone in the Dark maybe.
Amnesia?

Nop. But Wii runs GC games.

I mean it's not really horror and it's not truly Lovecraftian but Castlevania: Lords of Shadow kind of works.

For Playstation, definitely Amnesia. I also recommend Soma, though it isn't explicitly Lovecraftian (it's an excellent horror game, however). I suppose Slender: the Arrival is also vaguely Lovecraftian, but that's a bit of a stretch. 

There's also supposedly a new Call of Cthulhu coming out on ps4 sometime this year, but who knows if it will actually get done anytime soon.

Nop. But Wii runs GC games.

Fortunately, my Wii was the last model to do so, but to find a copy of ED at a fair price is going to be hard.

Amnesia I want, but it's $30 on the PSN.  Waiting for a sale.
