Alan Wake's American Nightmare
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!

Short but serviceable
The game is quite short and repetitive, but you can find your fun in it. I like the lore dropped in the manuscript pages.

Amazing game.
Great pacing, Great gameplay, great music, great voice acting, great acting and cut scenes. The downside which can also be its positive side is that the story is complicated, you cant understand whats happens in the end. I hope we will get answers in Alan Wake 2. Alos pls add achievments.

Lackluster
The sequel misses the mark, and loses the things made the first one good. It's much more action-focused, but the fights are really basic. There's no ammo management needed. The acting and story are really cheesy. This could be intentional, but it really doesn't manage the it's-so-bad-it's-good balance. Overall? I wouldn't say it's so bad you shouldn't play it at all. It does continue the story of the first one. Don't be surprised, if you end up disappointed, and don't pay too much for it.

Not a lot of content.
I thought the idea for the story was pretty cool but the content after playing for about an hour is both expected as well as being extremely repetitive. It is one of those games where you get a bit of story and have to walk to the next place to get more story. On the way there you shoot some guys. Repeat until the end of the game. Also, due to the story, you pretty much spend all your time in the same place over and over. I guess that is the point. Pretty much no replay value IMHO as the only thing it really had going for it was the cool story.
