alone in the dark is an excellent game for retro enthusiasts and newcomers to the genre, alike. for fans of this series, there's a lot to love about this modern take on the original pc survival horror classic, you can even purchase extra character skins to make yourself look like the polygonal characters reminiscent of the ps1 era. the graphics are excellent and there's a lot of detail beathing life (or unlife) into the derceto estate as you search for a missing madman and uncover dark secrets. the voice acting is amazing and adds to the eerie atmosphere created by the scenery; the performances of david harbour and jodie comer are complimented by the lesser known actors involved, the story which is so important to creating an immersive experience in this genre, has received a lot of good attention. newcomers to survival horror will be pleased to find puzzles, item management, and combat are all simple but not so much that fans would be turned off. alone in the dark doesn't break ground in any sense, but it does an amazing job of bringing a dated classic up to par for modern gamers.

Had a great time with this game. The story telling, atmosphere, and vibe are great. Is it a bit janky, yes. Combat and enemy AI could be better but if you are a horror game fan, I recommend giving this a chance.

This was a pleasant surprise. Had a lot of fun with it. Hope this franchise gets more remakes and sequels in the future, its one of the fathers of survival horror, after all.

Do you like Resident Evil? Do you like Alan Wake 2? If so, you’ll Likely enjoy this. It’s not as stressful as those games. There is no inventory management. The puzzles are just the right difficulty. The story is interesting, even if a bit mysterious as to exactly what’s going on. This is all to say, it’s a fun game. I recommend it if you’re into these sorts of horror games.

A classic horror series reborn on modern hardware. While a bit rough around the edges, Alone in the Dark is a series that has been dormant for many years, and is a worthy addition to any horror gamer's collection

Its a good game but not as good as the original. The character movments are choppy and wish they were more smoother, opening doors are slow, and the run mode could be a bit faster. Lots of jump scares and the monsters are creepy. The puzzles can be challenging but you can figure them out. Overall it was enjoyable and i would recommend this game.

As far as the quality of the physical disc from Best Buy - that’s a 5/5. The game itself is pretty good. Certainly not the best survival horror title, but fun nonetheless. If you’re a fan of the genre and are looking for something new, it’s worth it.

Overall it’s not a bad survival horror. It’s very mid for sure. Nothing good reading on the level of a RE game. One star not he’s off becuase if you are an trophy/achievement hunter it’s a real nightmare. And can be janky at times. If yall want a solid number from 10 I would give it a 6-6.5-7 at best.

It’s a okay game, lots of puzzles which aren’t necessarily fun or intuitive. But the game is good for a weekend of gaming.

Really fun game, great graphics and acting. I wish the game was a little bit longer, but you have to play through both characters' stories to get the full scoop, which helps.
