I'm looking for fantasy games with a certain flair.
Eery, melancholic, dark, creepy, gloomy, weird, dirty. mysterious, lonely, claustrophic, dangerous, etc ...

Just some suggestions. They don't need to fit all those terms.
I'm not really looking for full-blown horror games,
but won't disregard them as long as they fit.

No need to be sorry.
I just wanted to make it clear so the thread doesn't get watered down from the original topic to the point when people start suggesting Doom or Quake.
Which will inevitably happen at some point.

I want a modern day remake with all towers being upgraded and full of puzzles and dangers.

I'd like to recommend Shadowgate Rising but that was never released.
