Alone in the Dark

7 / 10.0

Alone in the Dark is the pioneer of the survival horror genre and, for many gamers who grew up in the ’90s, it’s a real treat for the soul. Any fan of the Resident Evil or Silent Hill series shouldn’t miss this first installment. If you’re an older gamer, I’m sure you’ll enjoy reminiscing—just like I do—about how this game terrified you not with the number of enemies or frantic action, but rather with its intense atmosphere. In this game, you actually had to think your way through to avoid getting stuck. For today’s players, it’s more of a relic of its time. If you’ve beaten the game, it’s clear that you’re among the genre’s veterans or connoisseurs.
