#4 Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag
The Assassin’s Creed franchise has been around for years now. Since its first release, we’ve seen some highs and lows from the franchise, but one of the games that continue to get brought up as a fan favorite had been Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag. The video game follows a new assassin by the name of Edward Kenway who embarks on a mission to stop the Templar order as is all of Assassin’s Creed video game titles. However, players seem to have enjoyed the life of being a pirate.
Players could explore the sea on a ship, conduct battles against other vessels found in the sea, and seek out treasure. While there have been some other big Assassin’s Creed video game installments that released since then, there is still a ton of enjoyment that you could have in this game.
#3 Outlast Series
Outlast has been an iconic survival horror franchise for a few years now. If you enjoy a jump scare style of gameplay then Outlast and Outlast 2 are worthwhile investments. We’re putting both of these games on the list although you can get away with playing the sequel by itself if you wish as the game can be considered a standalone release. Overall, both video game titles follow a similar gameplay mechanic which is easy to handle but also incredibly frightening to endure. Without diving into both game synopsis and spoiling potential players, both games follow players in a creepy environment such as an insane asylum. From there its a race in hopes of escaping with your life.
Unfortunately, players don’t take the role of some badassery protagonist, but instead someone vulnerable. With only a night vision camcorder to use as a means to see through the dark hallways, your real main mechanic to complete the game is using the night vision, solving a series of puzzles, and fleeing to an area in hopes of staying out of sight. As mentioned, the game thrives on jump scares so if you don’t like the adrenaline rush or your heart jumping out of your chest, maybe stay clear from this franchise.
