Description
Alan Wake’s American Nightmare is a stand alone spin-off adventure featuring a thrilling pulp action story mode and an all new “Fight till Dawn” arcade mode. American Nightmare will shine a new light on the world of Wake while appealing to fans and newcomers alike.

The single player campaign comes from the darkest corners of the ‘Night Springs’, a Twilight Zone inspired fiction. American Nightmare is an exaggerated and gritty rendering of that world – where the horrors of reality have the all too easy habit of coming true. When Wake becomes stuck in the alternate shadowed world of Night Springs, he must hunt down his evil double, Mr. Scratch, to find answers. A supernatural serial killer, Scratch is fixated on Wake’s wife, Alice, and even more horribly, Wake’s demise. To survive and thrive in the darkest of nights, Wake must learn to control reality itself and unravel the secrets of Night Springs with a trusty flashlight by his side and whatever weapon he can find.

The brand new “Fight till Dawn” arcade mode places Wake in the battle of his life. Players are tasked with surviving a full night of brutal onslaughts while racking up their score. With a myriad of new enemies to battle, Wake won’t have any trouble since he’ll have plenty of deadly options within his arsenal: old stalwarts like the flare gun, wild new favorites like the nail gun and old school Remedy favorites like the Uzi. Thankfully, safe havens and unlockable weapons litter the landscape, allowing for a momentary respite from the darkness. This pulp action-thriller adventure is a must have for all Alan Wake fans!
  • Play the full-fledged Story Mode: You’ll be on the edge of your seat as you fight to stop your murderous evil double to take back your life... and change reality itself!
  • Fight till dawn arcade mode: In the action-packed Arcade Mode, you’ll need to master the Fight with Light mechanic to stay alive until dawn.Can you survive until sunrise?
  • Face the darkness: Twisted and dangerous enemies stalk you in the shadows. Dispatch them with the powerful arsenal of weapons at your disposal.

Scary stuff

A man just with a fleshlight and gun, are on a killing spree in the darkness. Good voice acting and fancy pancy textures, its worth a try.

Well...

...I loved the story in AW and might have liked this too, if it had been just a little more believable and not quite so repetative as AW:AN is. Everything was as expected after the main game: graphics, weapons, foes, music and surroundings. Everything except the story and the three female characters. I agree with those who say that this was a lazy excuse for a game. It could have been so much more.

Interesting concept but boring result

Interesting concept but boring result due to length - I recall having a hard time forcing myself to complete it.

A downgrade from alan wake

It's a decent game with a fun new spin on shooters but a horrible horror, so bad it's not even listed as a horror game on gog. it certainly improves on the combat portion of alan wake, without a doubt with new guns and a wide range of enemies, something that was lacking in alan wake originally. However it lacks the same tone as the original by such a huge margin that it's hard to believe that this is a sequel. If it was a spin off I wouldn't complain but it's a direct sequel so it's huge tonal shift and lack of much of a story seems odd. The ending was super rushed and the game was clearly over padded. There's 3 open map areas with NPC's that you talk to, something that never occurred in the original. The npc's have no reason to be talked to any further than the cutscenes they're featured in although the TV shows more interesting things on it which all takes place in a single set room (a 1 room apartment). Don't get me wrong, the game's a blast it's just it's not what the original was and it's very short which 60% of the story mode being the same thing played again (back tracking) instead of any new meaningful content being shown or added

If I were a true fan of the original, I would be furious.

The villain is tedious, the plot is nonsense, and you have to play the same three levels three times to complete the game. It's about the quality level I would expect from a mediocre mod or fan game. If I were a true fan of the original, I would be furious about how this game ruins the franchise forever. As it is, I'm just mildly annoyed that I wasted my time and money on this drivel. At least it's short.
