Basically what the title says. I’ve only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I’m going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

    Life is Strange

    Life is Strange: Before the Storm

    I was going through a really rough time when I played both of those games. There was something in Before the Storm that I know was coming but I cried anyways, multiple times. I’ve never been that invested in a game before and I don’t know if I’ll ever be again.

      LiS is exactly what I came to suggest. I cried from every one of the LiS games and so recommend them all, but the original is hands down the best in pretty much every way.

        LiS1 and before the storm were excellent, but my partner and I found LiS2 laughable and LiS3 downright cringy. :c

        Yes I went into that game knowing only that choices matter and nothing else. It was a huge eye opener to mental health. I’m very tempted to get a tattoo of the spiral because I want to make it resemble when I made a choice to stay alive. I am in a much better place now and that game has really helped me.

      I love BTS. There’s something liberating about playing carefree rebel Chloe that I never managed to tap into when I was playing Max.

      Same here. LiS games are my goto for moods. It’s an interesting feeling when a song comes on from the games, that elicits an emotion so well.

      I’ve had a few times hearing a song from the games and either stopping and listening, getting a little teary eyed, or just getting goosebumps.
