Originally released in 2021, Inscryption is a roguelike deck-building game. It kicks off when the player awakens in a cabin, forced to play a game with a mysterious shadowy figure holding you captive. That game just so happens to be titled Inscryption. As the game unfolds, so too do the secrets relating to your circumstances. It may be a deck-building game, but there are certainly psychological horror and escape room elements too.

Over on Metacritic, the game has an impressive PS5 score of 87, with a user score of 8.5 Over on Reddit, many recommended the game. MojoPinnacle wrote, “Inscryption is a must play, even if you don’t like card games,” while iludear added, “I cannot recommend Inscryption enough. I usually play completely different genres but please, play this.”

User zmatt123 added, “I’m in the same boat. I’d never played a game like it and probably never will again, but I loved it.” Consider me convinced.
