Most-played Robinson's Requiem games
Robinson's Requiem
DOSSurvival adventure
Robinson's Requiem is a first-person survival adventure developed and published by Silmarils for DOS in 1994. The player is stranded on an unfamiliar planet after a spacecraft disaster and must stay alive while exploring a hostile wilderness. Its play style combines open-ended exploration, environmental problem-solving, resource management, and medical self-treatment rather than conventional combat-focused progression. The game is known for its unusually demanding simulation elements, including injuries, illness, hunger, thirst, temperature, and equipment wear. Contemporary and retrospective reception has often highlighted its atmosphere and ambition, while also noting its severe difficulty, opaque systems, and unforgiving design. It remains a distinctive example of mid-1990s European survival gaming.
Deus
DOSAction-Adventure
Deus is a science-fiction action-adventure game developed by Silmarils and released for DOS in 1996. It combines first-person exploration, real-time combat, inventory management, environmental problem solving, and role-playing elements. The game presents a dangerous futuristic setting in which the player investigates a hostile world while managing equipment, health, and resources. Its play style is slower and more exploratory than a conventional shooter, with progression depending on finding objects and understanding the environment. Deus received attention for its ambitious 3D presentation and broad simulation features, although contemporary criticism often noted its difficult interface, demanding pace, and uneven accessibility.

| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
