Help me find this childhood game

r/tipofmymouse type question.
I used to play a horror game between 2006–2010 on my PC. It may even be older than that period, as I used to play older games like Road Rash (1991 game).
The gameplay is like this: FPP (not 100% sure but most likely) POV, I think. We had a pistol-like gun, and we traveled through corridors of a building or warehouse, something like that. Suddenly, zombie-like ghost things would appear, and we had to kill them and keep going. Sometimes, those zombies/ghosts would appear suddenly to jumpscare us.
What could this game be?

Also, I’m not sure, but that game could have had a part 2 or 3, like sequels. But I’m not 100% sure — in fact, not even 15% sure.

I know I am describing it very vaguely. But I used to play it as a kid and don’t remember too many details.

Oof. Your description possibly covers an entire genre. Any other notable details you can remember?

Yeah, forgot to enter a small detail. I remember game starting. The protaganist reaches a very big old mansion type building. Then he goes inside and we had to kill zombies.
Other than don’t remember any more details. Also the game is very horrifying and have good number of jump scares.

Sounds like the original Resident Evil (1996) by the description.

Let me guess… the bullets actually ran out if you kept shooting, right?

Jokes aside, could it be F.E.A.R or some nosferatu game?

OMG.Yes. This is it.
Never had this much nostalgia hit when watching this video. Had both absolute blast and horror while playing this game.
Thank You.

I used to play contra, road rash, tetris, tank dash etc games during late 90s.
From 2000 I started playing all demo versions of games from digit magazine subscription.
From 2006 onwards I started buying pirated game cds till 2011. After 2011 I started downloading pirated versions till 2016.
From 2016 to today I am buying games via Steam & Epic. Other launchers only free games from promotions.

Sounds like Chasm: The Rift

The best games I played and completed were Project I.G.I. (2000) and Recoil (1999). Both were great :smiley:.
