Immersive Sims. We love Looking Glass-style experiences: first person adventures that often contain RPG elements and feature sprawling, nonlinear levels and a large degree of freedom for the player.

Consider this an anti-recommendation. Eidos Montreal did great with DE:HR, but they goofed with Thief. Awkward, clumsy, and frustrating -- but pretty.

Often compared to the first Deus Ex game, VTM:B is actually more of an RPG than it is an immersive sim. But it's brilliant. Fan patch recommended.

Interesting survival simulator from indie studio IonFX. Not for a casual hour or two of gaming; this is good stuff for people who love crafting.

The only immersive sim in the Far Cry series (though all the games are excellent), this middle chapter had a very reactive open world and mature story.

Immersive sim-style adventure game. Has lots of interesting ideas and great writing, but don't expect any in-depth gameplay. Worth checking out though.

A fun theme-park ride of a first person horror/stealth game. Has elements that immersive sim fans will love, but is not an immersive sim proper.

The immersive sim goes roguelike! A very fun procedurally-generated dungeon crawler with lots of stealthy goodness and an HP Lovecraft bent. Unique.

It's almost a (literally) watered-down remake of System Shock 2, really. Bioshock scaled back the sim and RPG stuff, but it's still an interesting FPS.

Again, not quite an Immersive Sim, but shares many similarities. Lots of scares and Lovecraftian goodness. Beware of a few game-breaking bugs.
Penumbra: Requiem
Recommended October 7, 2014
Before there was Amnesia, there were the Penumbra games. Lovecraftian horror gems.
