Hi there, /v/!
Well, I'm looking for some really dark-themed old games or games with unexpected dark twists (like Ecco's final lvl and boss). Blood, gore, Gieger- or Lovecraft-inspired environments or enemies, etc. - everything is fine. Of course, let's stay away from popular ones like Splatterhouse.

Realms of the Haunting, Thief, Maybe Blood?

That's interesting. But the others are quite popular, I guess.
Phantasmagoria
11th Hour
Ripper
Dark Seed
and just for shits and giggles, Postal
Dark Seed
Phantasmagoria
Harvester
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream
Bad Mojo
Alien Breed

Its a great game, certainly pretty dark. You can get it on steam pretty cheap - I got it for a dollar or something. Some really great voice acting and a cool environment to explore. No game ever really did Adventure / Shooter crossover in the same way.

I didn't find that at all. Controls were fine and game ran without a problem.
