      I have to return to the surface frequently because of it (I play creative so I don't need oxygen, I don't think I could handle the fear of suffocation along with the depths), it feel a lot like being scared of falling from somewhere high up, but instead feeling trapped where you can't tell what direction is up

    Without even watching the list , for me at least, the undisputed number one was the abyss in SOMA. I literally was going to shi*t my pants when you get lost and have to follow some distant lights in total darkness while there are strong water torrents at the bottom of the sea. Amazing game , imo. Half-life 1 also deserves an honorable mention with the first alien shark part.

    I think some of the absolute scariest underwater levels are the ones found in Sinking City. Seeing the creatures that lurk in the deep surrounded by the endless void of water is terrifying. Every time the player looks at one of these creatures the character's sanity actually goes down, as well as my own.

    11: Fog (Plants vs Zombies)
    This game is about a gardener using living plants to defend them from zombies. These levels are very stressful because some fog is covering half of the screen. Also you have to put up defenses as fast as you can, while also defending the pool in the middle, and you must have a lily pad, and many zombies can hop or fly over your plants, so these are the hardest levels to deal with in the game

    Swimming in the ocean in the middle of the night in Ark always gives me anxiety. You never know what's down there because nothing is scripted and the creatures are always on the move. You never feel safe because in the back of your mind you know that crazy things from the abyss sometimes end up wandering a little too far.
