A true trend setter

There isn't much to be said. Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a great atmospheric horror game that trades combat for adventure game puzzles (minus the moon logic), physics puzzles and stealth. It remains a classic in the genre to this day, despite its age. It was responsible for a trend of non combat horror games (that did overstay its welcome, though), and for a boom in Youtube Let's Plays - giving rise to prominent Youtubers that remain active to this game (your opinions on said Youtubers notwithstanding). Still, if you never played this game, you should try it out. It is cheap on sales, and still remain effective, It borrows from HP Lovecraft stories heavily (mostly from The Hound and Haunter of the Dark), but transforms them into a very memorable story.

Thank you for OpenSourcing the game

There are many things to appreciate regarding this game. Something unexpected was to see story that hold place in Prussia , I am not sure how many people are aware that this country existed at certain period of time, if you aren't definitely check history books as there are many interesting things to read. Game alone follow really good story development, it's one of my favorites and for the time when it came out it was definitely a hidden gem and it still is to this day. It works great on Linux 10/10 .

A little too much atmosphere.

System Shock 2. Resident Evil. Eternal Darkness. The number of games that really get the unease that horror is supposed to deliver right is small, but one larger now. Amnesia definitely belongs on that list. Other reviews go better into the story and gameplay than I can, because of the one (admittedly subjective) shortcoming of the game: the effects the game uses to indicate Daniel's dwindling sanity feel like someone went crazy with the Photoshop filters menu. It started out creepy, but culminated in a case of motion sickness that, sadly, kept me from going any further in the game.

One of the few horror games done well

One of only two horror games that has kept me on edge (the other being Outlast). The only letdown is how many of the monster encounters are simply a matter of hide and wait, not stealth and evade, which makes some sections a but dull once you've found a secure hiding spot. Resource management adds to the tension without becoming a distracting chore, although since losing sanity has no gameplay effect, not even making you noisier or clumsier, you will eventually only care about keeping your health up, and just keeping your sanity from hitting zero. There are some truly auditory disturbing flashbacks and the worst of the gore is left to your imagination. The story is much more than the usual excuse plot of the horror genre, and while mostly told through flashbacks and voiceover, does not suffer from the usual problem of "audio log" storytelling of feeling fragmented and sloppy. Of course, it may still fall flat for some people, depending upon how quickly you pick up on patterns and how easily you can predict level design elements. If you're a horror fan, you'll love this; if you're not, this is one of the few you should try anyway.
