12 Old School Resident Evil-Style Games You Need to Try Out

Tormented Souls

Taking inspiration from the original Alone in the Dark series as well as vintage Resident Evil, Tormented Souls’ dynamic shifting fixed camera perspectives also evoke turn of the century RE title Code Veronica, its effect mirroring the eyes of a portrait following protagonist Caroline Walker as she creeps through the candle lit corridors of a terrifying mansion-turned-asylum. In a further nod to Code Veronica, Tormented Souls features obtuse and challenging puzzles, with a shlock of dodgy dialogue to boot. Tormented Souls released in 2021 to PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam where there’s a free demo to try too.
