Description
Includes Jack in the Dark bonus adventure

A suspicious suicide. A chilling curse. A malevolent power. Finally, a wicked dark secret. This is Derceto, a legendary Louisiana mansion where, against your better judgment, you're drawn into a world of shadows to explore the darker side of Jeremy Hartwood's imagination.

Despite a paralyzing sense of personal danger, your quest for truth drives you to investigate the old house. But, you didn't know that, by entering Derceto, you'll be plunged into the daily nightmare that was Jeremy Hartwood's life. You weren't prepared for the torturous howls that resound from deep within its halls. You didn’t foresee the shadowy corridors that seemingly have no end. You couldn't anticipate the brooding, gloom-filled rooms, the pervasive weight of dread, the heavy sense of evil that gills the atmosphere and the very house itself.

Had you known, you might have refused this task. But alas, you accepted, and now you must make your way through this spine-tingling adventure alone... and in the dark.

A very scary game

I like to thank GOG for making this available for us. I do own the series on CD, but do not like jumping though hoops to get it to work. I remember loading this game up and playing for the first time, in the first scene seeing the wolf coming at the window had sent chills up and down my back and the music did not make it any better. I never really played beyond the first scene being I collected a lot of games and most of them I never got to play. The little time I played has convinced me that this game is great. Again I thank you GOG!

The grandfather of survival horror

Before Resident Evil came, there was Alone in the Dark. When the first game came, it left a huge impression on everyone that played it. Players were scared witless by the monsters that lurked the dark and foreboding corridors of Dercerto. Unlike any other survival horror game, not all monsters could be killed by normal means, you had to read the books and manuscripts you find around Decerto to get clues as to what that monster's weak spot was. This game series is a classic that any survival horror player should play atleast once.

Never Played this back in the day...

...but would have been blown away back then. The graphics then were amazing, and gameplay was the same. These days, its a fun the same way driving a 50's era car would be fun. Great at first and brings back memories, but once that's over.... Anyway - great game for the money. Was worth the few bucks I paid for it.

Wonky control but 100% Nostalgia!

I remember getting up early before school to play AiTD on my old AST Advantage pc, with it's 33mhz processor, 4 megs of RAM, and Windows 3.1 I used to read the books in game looking for clues, trying to read between the lines, when it turned out most puzzles were rather elementary, lol. Even still, this game goes down as one of my first PC games and probably what hooked me on games for life! Thanks GOG for making it painless to run the program as well. Cheers
