Chordosis has to be one of the most moody games I've ever played. Every nook and crany seemed filled to the brim with secrets and unspeakable horrors. I can't recommend it enough and if you like cosmic horror, you should give this one a try, although it's not finished and it has no release date in sight. Unfortunately, my video doesn't make the game justice but seeing that there is also a demo, you can try it for yourself.

T.M.R. reminds me a lot of Penumbra and Amnesia, in the way the puzzles work. This a very impressive demo made by 2 developers. The history is interesting and leaves you with a sense of dread.
I admit I rather enjoy the game without enemies, when it focuses on environmental history telling rather than another hide and seek esque gameplay.
Overall, very recommended and you can can see how it runs on Steam Deck by pressing the link below:
Lorraine is a gothic rock or penny dreadful turned into videogame form. A game I've been looking for and never knew it actually existed. I loved it so much that the prospect of it ending so shortly made me not want to finish it. Gorgeously looking, if you ever wondered what would be like to play on Edgar Allan Poe or Mary Shelley novel, this is the game for you.
It also runs perfectly on Steam Deck as you can see by pressing the link below:
Rental can only he described as a mixture between Animal Crossing and Silent Hill. Although this sounds weird, it works perfectly well. The ominous vibes of a horror game blended together with the cuteness of an anthropomorphic character will make you crave for more. Original, short and free. No reason to not give it a try.

Closing Doors is a novel idea and has the name says, your only objective is to close doors. To tell more of it will be to spoil it, and due to it's rather short nature, you better off playing it. Recommended and would love to see what else is coming. The devs also have an upcoming game on Steam so you can wishlist it. If you want to check how it runs on Steam Deck just press the link below:
T.B.I. is...different. Hard to categorise besides a trip into cosmic horror and dread. The visuals are a mixture of retro with weird, nightmare inducing strokes of mastery. Absolutely recommended for lovers of indie games and runs perfectly well on Steam Deck as you can see by pressing the link below:
ROT is based on the Youtube short movie with the same name, by Corridor. Clearly and since this is also mentioned, based on Silent Hill, ROT is a love letter to one of the greatest games of all time; creepy, eery and cryptic. An absolute recommendation of a short game and movie. Runs perfectly well on Steam Deck as you can see by pressing the link below:
Westwich Castle will certainly remind you of the first Ammesia game by Frictional Games. This is indeed a great presentation, and one that you absolutely have to try, if you enjoy a creepy and eerie atmosphere. The castle, although not gigantic, can give a labyrinthine sense of grandeur, where each room hides a dark secret waiting to jump on you. Recommended, as are all this devs games.

Slightly different from L.i.V, especially length wise, Vergilius is an eye pleasing game; (those clouds made my jaw drop). You are set in the shoes of the afore-mentioned character Virgilius, who accompanied Dante in his journey through hell. Virgil is now in a journey of his own, and Kira made an amazing job at convening an empty, vast landscape. Absolute recommendation of a game, and it runs perfectly on Steam Deck.
