Ocult games

That and the main character you play through most of the game kills people for a living but since that's sadly a staple for most video game characters that's no where near a shocking as it probably should be.

One of the most anti-Christian games I've ever played. The entire game presents Christianity as this creepy, racist cult doing very awful things such as forcing people to be baptized before being allowed entrance to the city. There's also all-seeing eye symbols and transhumanist ideas found throughout the game.

It also paints the antichrist as a misunderstood hero since Booker himself is portrayed as the antichrist of this particular religion. I never had a chance to play this one but the synopsis and pentagram along with the one-eyed salute on the cover art are more than enough to make me find room for it on the list.

Description from Beginningandend. His newfound powers and abilities were bestowed by Satan. He uses parasites to summon demonic power in order to fight his missions. Gameplayers are required to negotiate with demonic forces in order to fight battles.

Many characters have occult powers and the occult is exalted in this game, along with power and murderous strength. This game is supposed to be played as a fantasy in a controlled environment so that no one is harmed.

However, this game and its variations have long since spilled into the streets, played out by groups of people who consider themselves true vampires. In some cities, players have formed gang-like clans involving drugs, sorcery, and murder. Many teens who have been influenced by the vampire subculture admire and imitate the morbid and deathoriented traits of the vampiric lifestyle, including fake fangs and blood-drinking.

It is a risky world for emotionally damaged or immature players. The Bible not only tells us to think on what is lovely and pure see Phil. Players are considered to be wizards or sorcerers, and the cards are color-coded into five kinds of magic: red, blue, green, white, and black.

Many cards also have images that are frightening, gruesome, violent, and bizarre, such as one with a warrior licking blood off a sword. It is a complex strategy game that attracts teenage boys and young men. However, many images are grisly and death-oriented, and occult terms and concepts are used on some cards. Playing the game introduces players to these images and concepts, desensitizing them to things that are dark and repulsive.

The Bible forbids sorcery, but all players automatically assume the role of sorcerer using the five kinds of magic. The Tarot Although the Tarot is a deck of cards, it is not played as a card game. Instead, Tarot cards are used for divination, a method of obtaining information through supernatural means and interpretation of hidden meanings. The origin of these cards is unknown, although many believe they originated in France in the fourteenth century. Add to Cart.

All Positive Negative A relatively easy adventure game that keeps you moving forward with its episodic content, Darkside Detective is highly recommended if you want a more casual and laid back experience. One that will take you on a fun ride through all kinds of horror and sci-fi tropes without too much worry about getting stuck on obscure puzzles. An episodic mystery game that is narrative and back-story heavy, this is worth spending a few evenings with in the same way that you might binge watch your current favourite Netflix show.

With references to many different kinds of esoteric traditions, from Lovecraft to Freemasonry and the Illuminati, this is an immersive and engaging game that draws you in with a focus on exploration, character development and deep conversations with plenty of hidden mystery to be found. There was a period where it seemed the only esoteric references in the public eye were Witches and Templars.

The Broken Sword series leans heavily into the latter, taking a lot of influence from in famous books such as Holy Blood, Holy Grail that sprung onto best-seller lists and created a wave of mainstream interest in esoteric conspiracies that spanned throughout history. If you are looking particularly for occult references, the fifth game in the series is fantastic and quite detailed on that front.

Ritual magic plays a central part in the story and the game oozes with atmosphere in a dusty, haunted house kind of way. An immersive and engaging adventure game, with some interesting new ideas and mechanics that are wrapped in an authentic occult theme.

Cultist Simulator is an incredibly engaging and deep game that looks simple, but hides a surprising amount of depth and immersion behind its card-based aesthetic. As far as occult references are concerned, this game has a tonne: from grimoires and magical rituals, through to mystical experiences and secret societies. It takes a lot of influence from the likes of H. Lovecraft, but goes a long way to developing its own relationships between different elements that build upon one another as the game progresses until you have a whole host of staggered timers and layered interactions.

A highly replayable game that draws you in and really engages your sense of imagination and wonder, along with a bit of foreboding dread about things unknown, Cultist Simulator is an original take on the well-known Lovecraftian genre that deserves all the attention and praise it has received.

Current gen VR headsets have really crossed the threshold where you can now be fully immersed in the experience. You will likely be familiar with the Room series, which takes you through a series of intricate puzzles boxes and other interactive objects with deep mechanical intricacies. The VR entry ramps this up considerably and the use of sigils and other occult aesthetics throughout really make it a wonderfully immersive experience that feels deeply esoteric even though it is essentially a puzzle game.
