The Architect dons his Mountain Dew sponsored gaming headset, readies his Dorito bandolier and ventures into lands where even 1337 H4X0Rs dare to tread, the world of hardcore games.

The genre is well named. These games are hard, but unlike a lot of their equally-tricky contemporaries, the likes of Dark Souls and Cuphead are designed around a specific kind of difficulty that's deeply liked to human psychology.
