The spiritual continuation of the famous Alone in the Dark series - the precursor to the survival horror genre!

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
Not necessarily the original but plays the most like a Resident Evil and not like its awkward first 3 outings, which while charming, were a true test of patience.
For a breakdown of New Nightmare and the rest of the series including the films, check out my review:

With great atmosphere, in my opinion splendid visuals (the lightning effects in this game were something else back in 2001 and they still look great) and good sound design, eventhough the PC port suffers from compression. The writing is of course cheesy, no one should go into this game expecting Silent Hill 2 level of script, but the story is interesting enough for you to want to uncover its secrets. There are puzzles, there is a big, classy, spooky mansion and the monsters aren't your typical zombies or ghosts either. A solid survival horror game of its time, and in a couple of ways, for me, timeless.
BUT the GOG copy is hardly fixed. Running on Win 10 x64 and experiencing every possible issue described on every possible forum. I've spent, I think, more than 6 hours now digging around, implementing patches and files provided by different people on different websites and there's no winning. The game just runs poorly (the famous blackscreen FMVs for example). I would really, really love GOG to look into it and maybe finally provide a fully playable version of the game, we all know they can do that.
All the best!
This is a great survival, following a realistic line like Silent Hill.
hey gog! there is a Braziliam oficial audio for this game, you need release this version too.
Somehow, they managed to fix the problem.
Just edit the shortcut application's properties and in the "Target" box in the 'shortcut' tab, look for 'launcher.exe' at the end of the address line and change it to 'alone4.exe', then save the changes and copy the shortcut application to the desktop and doubleclick on it. It will work!
Enjoy the game!
