They’re brutal. They’re unforgiving. And somehow we can’t stop playing them. The hardest games in the world push players to the edge then dare them to try again. Whether it's the precision of Celeste, the chaos of Getting Over It, or the relentless punishment of Dark Souls, these games aren’t just hard they’re personal. But that’s the magic. Every loss stings. Every win? Feels like a triumph. If you’ve ever thrown a controller but came back anyway, you already know the pull of the hardest games in the world.
