Amnesia: The Dark Descent
(Frictional Games)A groundbreaking genre classic, Amnesia: The Dark Descent took gamers completely out of their comfort zone – the monsters in this title can’t be defeated like in most games, they can only be evaded. The player takes control of Daniel, a man who awakens within the walls of a gothic castle with not memory of how he got there. After finding a self-written note that tells him he must kill the castle’s baron and evade the “Shadow” hunting him, Daniel sets out on his murder adventure while trying not to get got himself. The castle is haunted by potato sack headed, evil Squidward looking creatures that erode your sanity at a glance. No, really – the game was one of the first to feature an actual sanity meter, and allowing Daniel to become too traumatized will lead to a total game over on the hardest difficulties. All you can do is stay in the light, hide in the closet, and pray the sack Squidwards don’t find you.
