What you are about to do has not been approved by the Vatican. As a young priest, struggle against demons, cultists, and your own weakening faith in this pixel horror game inspired by the era of classic 8-bit gaming and the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s.
(from the game's steam page, here).
I didn't think I could be scared by a game that looks like it came right out of the Apple II era, but the smoothly rotoscoped 2 - 4 color animations in Faith are plenty freaky. The story is delightful, too, with multiple endings possible and interesting lore to discover as rookie priest John Ward is forced to confront his own weaknesses.
I still find the death screen so memorable and haunting, even though it's just a black screen with an electronic voice reading the text "MORTIS" to you.
It was originally released in 3 individual chapters, but with Unholy Trinity, you can get all 3 at once on steam for $14.99 right now.
Supposedly a 4th chapter is in development, although it's been a long time with no news. Still, I think the first three are satisfying enough.
