![]() ![]() ![]() Creepy and crazy? You betcha! Giger’s work was stellar for this game, achieving a level of design many titles were envious of at the time. On the first night he stays in the house, he has a nightmare that some alien machine injects an embryo into his brain. You play the game as Mike Dawson, an ad executive and writer who has just bought an old mansion. Giger himself did work for? Dark Seed features ornate, but menacing art. So why not start this list off with a game that H.R. Giger had on Tormentum: Dark Sorrow’s artwork.
