Amnesia: The Dark Descent is honestly one of the scariest games I have ever encountered!!
But, light will also give you away. You cannot attack in this game. In Amnesia, you can only hide, run, and solve the puzzles. This game is meant to be played with headphones, or loud volume, in the dark. The graphics are awesome, the background noise... creepiest noises and music ever. This is a first person puzzle game, in which you can interact with pretty much anything that surrounds you. Frictional Games did a phenomenal job!
In the DLC (Downloadable Content), Amnesia: Justine, if you die, you have to start at the very beginning of the game. Luckily, in the original game, that is not the case. So, my suggestion is: save frequently. You never know what the game will throw at you.
I tried playing Amnesia with a friend of mine, and the two of us made it about 10 minutes (maybe fewer) into the game before getting so scared we slammed the laptop shut! We figured we could handle it because we'd watched "Let's Play's" on Youtube. We couldn't... Hahaha!
It's a brilliant game that will run on both Mac and PC. You can download the Demo and the game from their website here. If you're someone who uses Steam, the game and Demo are also available there.
I dare you to give it a try!!
Happy Gaming!
