Games Like Benson Bones

Benson Bones is a top-down pixel art adventure RPG about a boy, a friendly dog, and a mysterious world full of doors that appear to have an agenda. Read your enemies instead of mashing, rest at checkpoints that bring the dead back with you, and follow your new dog friend to uncover answers about your awakening. 

Wake up. Find your dog.

You climb out of a coffin with dirt in your lungs and no memory of who you were. Most of the dead around you came back empty. You didn't, and nobody can tell you why. A dog finds you in the graveyard and won't leave your side. By the time you learn his name, he's the one thing here you trust. Then he's gone.

The only one offering help is a hooded figure who's generous for reasons he keeps to himself. He was the first to wake up here, and he's been trying to leave for a very long time. His door only goes where it's already been. Find the dormant frames hidden across the realms, light them, and the door reaches further. Somewhere on the other side is Benson.
