If The Callisto Protocol™ is your kind of game, the closest matches are Dead Space, Resident Evil Requiem and The Evil Within 2 — picked from the ranked list below. Reviewers describe it as atmospheric, dark and immersive, and single out its close combat priority and dodge based defense. Each pick is ranked by what players of this game also play, shared genres and tags, and review-mined similarity — not a generic popularity list.
Set on Jupiter's dead moon, this third-person survival horror action-adventure tasks players with fighting through hostile environments to escape. The 2022 release emphasizes close-quarters combat where dodge-based defense and environmental exploitation become essential survival tools, with a gravity restraint projector proving particularly effective against enemies. Limited inventory management forces careful decision-making, and scripted sequences punctuate the longer campaign. Reviewers highlight the cinematic atmosphere that enhances immersion while noting the high difficulty demands patience and focus, though boss encounters are described as punishing yet fair. The Callisto Protocol runs verified on Steam Deck at $59.99, holding a 66% positive rating from over 16,000 Steam reviews.

The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“This game constantly crashes and the optimisation is very poor. 2 years old and the developers still haven't fixed the issues”
“Boring and repetitious gameplay wrapped with annoying bug where your saves will disappear. My saves disappeared twice in one playthrough. This game is not worth your time or money.”
