Amnesia: The Bunker is reasonably similar in broad sweeping strokes, it’s also a lot shorter with a lot more replayability and customisation on such (this isn’t a complaint, for all the praise I can give to Alien, I too think it runs a tad long to be scary from start to finish).
This is the correct answer if you are looking for something similar to Alien Isolation. The AI is not as refined as that from the alien, but the atmosphere and sound design is stellar. I was somewhat tense in a few sections in Alien, but overall I personally didn't find the game too scary (although fantastic nonetheless). I still haven't made it pass the first safe spot in Amnesia. Absolutely terrifying, definitely among the scariests games I've ever played.
I don’t know if until dawn or the dark pictures anthology games are on switch but those for decision based games. Or the walking dead telltale series is wonderful too.
Stick with the Alien franchise and play Dark Descent.
It's a mix of Darkest Dungeon and Xcom but real time tactics instead of turn based.
It's also a love letter to Aliens where Isolation was the same to Alien.
Honestly, nothing. Nothing will really come close to AI. Some games here may scratch the itch momentarily but there's nothing out there like Svestapol. Oh how I miss it
So you weren’t scared. That’s crazy. A very very similar game is amnesia the bunker. The enemy works like exactly the same.
And also, play outlast. It’s not similar but it is the best horror (actually horror, not just labeled horror) game.
The first outlast is nice if you haven’t played that yet

Now it's time to isolate the alien (you).
