** Nor does the fact that the default losing conditions of the game are not death, but the far worse fates of collapsing (letting the Nightmares get to you) or going so far over the deep end of insane you become a Nightmare.
* The Swedish RPG ''[[Kult]]'' may well be one of the creepiest roleplaying games in existence. "Death is only the beginning", indeed. Roll ''[[Hellraiser]]'' and a twisted version of Gnosticism into one, add evil angels and insanity-induced mutation into monsters, and you understand why most ''KULT'' characters start out already fucked up. Or cursed.
* The German RPG ''[[Engel]]'' comes close, though. Unless you play it as a superhero/[[Dungeons and& Dragons|D&D]] hack-n-slay setting, which would totally kill the creepy.
** The creepy only really sets in when you ''get'' the fact that {{spoiler|the so-called 'angels' are actually brainwashed, nanomachine-infected children mostly aged 12-14 who were stolen from their parents and forcefully molded into androgynous 'angelic' figures meant to know nothing outside of service to their Himmel}}. And you know that age-range? Well, aside from the standards dangers of the world, there's a Papacy-sponsored reason as to ''why'' Engels never seem to get any older...
* The original edition of ''[[Tabletop/Little Fears|Little Fears]]'', where the players play children and one of the opponents is the [[Anthropomorphic Personification]] of sexual molestation.
