Good Story - Strong Soma Influences
I feel like Frictional may have set expectations in the wrong vein by calling this game Amnesia. While there are ties to the Amnesia universe, the narrative driven game play and sci-fi horror settings will disappoint some fans of The Dark Descent. Amnesia: Rebirth uses the main character's flashbacks and comments to herself, ("What was that thing?!") to garner sympathy and help the player connect with her. This was very effective for me, and immersed me in the bleak, discouraging story unfolding in front of me. I do feel like the game could have leaned deeper into mechanics like managing Tasi's fear. I expected to need to be more careful about how much time I spent in the darkness. I appreciated when I entered a sunlit room and locked that Tasi said, "I feel safer here". But I also thought that would come into play, needing to find a safe room to calm Tasi down, but it didn't. While not as memorable or grand in story scope as Soma, I really enjoyed Amnesia: Rebirth and look forward to whatever Frictional works on next!
