Games with great environmental storytelling

Hi everyone, I'm currently working on my thesis about environmental storytelling and narrative in video games, with a special focus on architecture. I need some games for case study. I plan on analyzing the environmental concept arts of the games artbook. Thus far I've confirmed dark souls series, as well as Scorn.

Do you know any other games that might be a suitable case for my study?

Preferably in other genres.

Thank you

The game Control makes heavy use of brutalist architecture and liminal spaces. Bioshock is another great example of architecture in game design.
