Silent Hill 2

The 2001 classic uses environmental storytelling and a haunting score to explore grief and guilt, selling over 1 million copies on its original release. Its fog-shrouded town and Otherworld transitions set a standard that Amnesia: The Dark Descent's Amnesia later borrowed heavily from. The game's infamous 'Pyramid Head' monster has become an enduring icon, appearing in more than 5 spin-offs.
