[The Register] Antique Code : Alone in the Dark

[The_Unbeliever]

Antique Code Show There was a time when you were considered a bit of a sissy if a computer game scared you. Yet along with the numerous innovations Alone in the Dark brought to the gaming world, it was one of the first titles to genuinely put the ****s up anyone brave enough to play it.

Creaky floorboards, distant howls, Hitchcock camera angles, and an intriguing, hideous, unraveling plotline gave this title the power to spook like nothing before.

Tried the original back in the day. Got the heebie-jeebies, and stopped playing.

Scary. Not for sissies.

I've got this sitting on my HDD (thank you GOG halloween sale), but now I don't know if I really want to play it if it's that scary.

I've already given Amnesia 2 and Outlast a skip because they're supposedly hell scary.
