HeavyGames is a subreddit for all video games, no matter what platform, that can be described as "heavy" or "psychedelic". No more than one thread per particular game is allowed.

Each post should have the game title included. Posts without one will be removed.

What does "heavy" mean in videogames? Games that screw with your mind or those that main theme is related to things like consciousness, free will, fears (but not plain horrors), traumas, mental illnesses etc.

As for "psychedelic" - videos games that try to play with cognition and perception.

A combination of both those descriptions would fit perfectly.
