Any similar games to Killer7?

[Fususu]

I mean in the surrealism and overly convoluted plot sense. I played a game that could be a bit compared to it in the surrealist aspect, called Critters for Sale, but can't think of other games besides maybe The Silver Case and its sequel (I still need to play them). Any more games like this?

That's tough. I know some movies.

Killer is Dead is one of the most atrocious ports to play. Don't recommend even if you're dying for more killer7

killer7 is so unique that there are basically no games quite like it... But there are some games that are very clearly inspired by it; you should take a look at Hotline Miami 1 & 2, and Katana Zero. I used to consider the former duology the two best games ever made (before I played killer7, obviously). The latter is more based off of Hotline Miami, but just like HM a lot of the themes and writing are still adjacent with the values of k7. None of them are quite as surreal though.

I've only recently started the Metal Gear Solid series, but it already really comes off as a similarly bizarre and intriguing experience as far as I have seen in the PS1 game. Maybe you should give that a spin.

Or finally, you can stick with ol' reliable and keep playing some more SUDA51 games. NMH 1 & 2 just recently got put on Steam, and The Silver Case series actually has three games, but only the first and third are on Steam (TSC and 25W), you'll have to emulate the second one ("Flower, Sun and Rain") on Nintendo DS.

Does Katana Zero follow this dark noir novel style as Hotline Miami 1&2 (I played the heck out of this two actually, I'm only missing one or two achievements)? I had it in my wishlist but didn't thought the plot would be comparable in some way. I'd love to replay the Metal Gear Solid series, what stopped me is not liking too much PS2 emulation.

I have Pathologic 2 on hold after around 11h of gameplay, it was a great experience so far, just a bit hard in the plot and decision making. How does the first one compare?

Thanks everyone for the replies so far.

Disagree, plays fine on PC and KiD has more complex and arguably more fun gameplay

[Simna ibn Sind]

I didn't have much trouble with KiD on PC and it has cool graphics, but it wasn't nearly as impactful of a game as Killer7.

A lot of fundamental aspects of both the gameplay and storytelling is very similar to Hotline Miami, yeah. As I always describe it, Katana Zero feels like a Hotline Miami fanfiction (and that's a good thing, of course).

killer is dead is one of the most beautiful hack and slashes if you tweak it right on PC, enable 60fps and the QTE timing fix and you're set.

cruelty squad i guess

Swery games like D4 Dark Dreams Dont Die.
And Paradise Killer- completely surrealist detective game but much more upbeat
