Alone In The Dark: The New Nightmare

"...there’s an excellent adventure game here, marred only by a few jagged polygons in places, and unless you’re some sort of wussy cushion squirmer, you’ll want to make it part of your collection."

"As with games of this nature, every step he takes is met with mystery, surprises, and overwhelming feelings of suspense and continuous, never-ending danger."

"Given the scarcity of successful executions, you'd think that developing a successful survival-horror game is something of a science. Whatever the particulars of the formula, Darkworks has apparently gotten it right... The game is quite graphically impressive, given the platform it's being released on... Capcom is going to have a genuine challenger on its hands..."

"As good as AITD looks, and as good as the torch routine is, by far the biggest problem it will have is winning over fans who have been spoiled by games like Resident Evil, Parasite Eve 2 and Dino Crisis... Basic combat and basic puzzles may put off those gore-hardened fans of Resident Evil, but AITD relies a lot on the excellent plot and pacing..."

"...definitely one of the most atmospheric survival horrors around... even though the nightmare may not be all that new to today's audience, Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare is still a very good game."
