Amnesia: The Dark Descent – 0/1 – Henry Arrambide
This cover is deceptively intriguing.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent is, in the most literal sense, a fool’s game. In order for the player to be drawn into the haunting atmosphere of the game’s abandoned castle, a great deal of intelligence must be sacrificed. While most horror games do this effectively by creating a sense of tension and self-doubt within the player that undermines the player’s trust in their own intelligence, Amnesia robs the player of an element of choice which allows that kind of tension to form organically.
