Alone in the Dark ROM Description
Alone in the Dark aims high but falls flat with its 2008 survival horror reboot. Developer Eden Games bites off more than it can chew across this sloppy PlayStation 2 port. An intriguing premise collapses under the weight of severe technical and design issues.
Awakening amnesiac in Central Park, protagonist Edward Carnby contends with paranormal forces invading modern New York. The urban setting offers potential for eerie exploration, and the soundtrack strikes the right ominous tone. Some environmental puzzles also prove engaging.
However, spotty detection prompts frustrating trial-and-error gameplay. Physics and fire behave erratically, while finicky driving and platforming controls plague action setpieces. Generic visuals lack atmosphere and technical issues like frame rate dips abound.
For all its cinematic ambitions, Alone in the Dark lacks polish and focus. None of its varied half-baked gameplay styles come together in satisfying ways. The underwhelming 10 hour story provides scant motivation to endure these mechanics. What narrative intrigue arises falters under clunky execution.
Some interesting ideas glimmer within this disaster, but unrefined design smothers any moments of brilliance. For a modern reimagining of the 1992 classic that pioneered action horror, this misfire disappoints. Download the glitchy PS2 version on ROMsdl.NET only for curiosity, not quality. The barren and gloomy title reflects the experience.
Instead, revisit the landmark original Alone in the Dark from 1992 to appreciate the series’ roots. Or for great PS2 survival horror, try Silent Hill 2 Collection and Resident Evil. Fear the darkness.
