Overhead (2018)

Imprisoned in cryo-sleep for over a century, you awaken to the chilling reality of a long-abandoned subterranean facility. "Overhead" plunges you into a first-person odyssey of survival, where the suffocating darkness is punctuated by the horrors of failed experiments and grotesque mutations. You'll navigate treacherous, contaminated zones, all while piecing together the unsettling truth behind Hexagon, a pharmaceutical giant whose ambition led to your frozen slumber and the facility's mysterious evacuation. The desperate search for a way out becomes a race against time, a battle against both environmental hazards and the twisted creatures that now inhabit this forgotten world, with the lingering question of whether the surface itself still offers salvation. This title earns its place among the best the SA industry has to offer by delivering a potent blend of atmospheric dread and engaging gameplay. Its exploration mechanics are bolstered by intricate puzzle-solving, forcing players to think critically under immense pressure. The narrative, while rooted in a familiar sci-fi trope, is effectively executed, building suspense and a sense of profound isolation. The terror is palpable, not just from jump scares, but from the oppressive atmosphere and the existential threat of what became of humanity and the world above. "Overhead" showcases the SA industry's talent for crafting immersive, story-driven experiences that linger long after the credits roll.
