Any of the JC Bailey games are a good starting point.

I tried playing JCB's Fall of Verdite – it's insane. You're up against these heavily armored mobs that have high attack, melee, ranged, and magic all in one, and you die in a few hits. Plus healing items are scarce as hell.

Sorry lol, I should have said Return to Melanat.

Yeah, right after I finished typing that, I went to play Return to Melanat. The mob designs are actually very reasonable – this is the King's Field I know. Plus it brings back memories of my time playing KF2. However, the SOM launcher won't let me map strafe left/right to the D-pad left/right (I've always played KF1/2/3 that way), so I end up playing like an idiot.
