Line 326:
* ''[[The Binding of Isaac]]'' is certainly a [[Religious Horror]] and [[Survival Horror]] as far as the story is concerned, but exactly what ''type'' of game it is can be debated. Some say it's a [[Roguelike]] stealth game due to all the dungeons, while others say it's "twinstick shooter" due to the controls. Whatever the case, the gameplay can definitely be called ''unique''.
* ''[[Doki Doki Literature Club!]]'', oh yeah. {{spoiler|This starts as a [[Dating Sim]] with your typical cute anime girls whom the player - through his character - is trying to woo, but then it takes a sharp turn into [[Survival Horror]] and ''someone'' starts murdering them. There's a [[Yandere]] loose, and the scary part is, the player's ''character'' [[The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You| is ''not'' the one she wants]]...}}
* ''[[Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion]]'' is an Indy game that starts with Spooky - a cute little ghost girl - challenging you to explore all 1,000 rooms of her Mansion, and it seems like harmless, lighthearted game at first. It is not. This is nothing less than [[Survival Horror]], with terrifying enemies and disturbing lore - {{spoiler|Spooky's true goal is to recruit the player into her army of demons (which, by the way, happens if you get the ''Good'' ending) so she can gain revenge against people who think ghosts are "cute."}}
