Under the radar gem
Alan Wake is what I like. Psychological horror, woodland environs, spooky quiet town, single player, linear, easy to medium difficulty, medium length to finish (12-14 hours). It's in the class of games like Evil Within where reality and fiction are hard to determine. For anyone raised in the 80s of Stephen King horror and/or enjoyed creepy tv shows like The Twilight Zone, this is a similar experience. One reason I got this was the lighting. Alan Wake makes a point about night and day, using them as part of the story rather than just being there for show. The shadows and light are awesome, and they have a part to play in the game. Combat is not drawn out firefights but require using the light to defeat the enemies. So Wake's real friends are not bullets but batteries (for his flashlight). The narrative is forwarded with flashbacks and Wake's viewing of a Twilight Zonish tv show in the interludes. Alan Wake is a perfect downtime game when you need a break from triple A titles and want an offline, solo game.
