Mar 29, 2022A well-planned linear plot, memorable locations and musical accompaniment make this game a worthy representative of the genre.

Aug 11, 2023Amnesia is one of the most revolutionary horror games, youtubers like pewdiepie and markiplier were born thanks to this fantastic game, I spent hundreds of hours on the game and its custom stories, Original setting but perhaps a little repetitive, tedious but interesting puzzles, monsters are 3 but still manage to strike terror. The lantern is always etched in my heart. Rating 8.5

Aug 5, 2021I really like amnesia due to its atmosphere after all, the game has amazing sounds and music. that you seem to be in this ancient castle, but if the storyline in this game would be longer and there would be more scary moments, I would put 10, but I would put 9/10.

Jun 10, 202210/10 is not an exaggeration, this game shaped what we know today as horror games, it is a masterpiece of the game history, and it deserves its spotlight.
I think there is no other game that has me to engaged for so long and so amazed on its mechanics. -
Aug 10, 2023One of the greatest horror games of all time. There isn't another horror game that compares to the sheer atmospheric terror that you get from this game. No jump scares... just the way I like it. Don't let youtubers/streamers deter you from playing it because of how they act. They are there to entertain you, please play the game by yourself and enjoy it.

May 29, 2023A defining horror game, Amnesia really did a great job of raising the bar and making their game equal parts skin crawling, intriguing and terrifying. The story was compelling, and the gameplay terrifying.

Aug 10, 2023That's the best horror game I've ever played. It's a truly scary game, not like most other games that call itself horror games.

Apr 19, 2011Amnesia: The Dark Descent is the scariest game in years. You'll get an extremely creepy vibe from the castle and all of the mysterious things that are happening there. The voice overs and the ending of the game aren't great, but this shouldn't bother anyone seeing how you'll be extremely scared when you play this on your own in a dark room.

Jan 31, 2011Amnesia offers an experience so rich that we're willing to forgive its weak ending, imperfections of the engine, and low-bugdet production values.

Jan 29, 2011At times it's a struggle to play purely because of how scary it can be, and it's not often you can say that about a video game. Just remember: lights off, headphones on, and try not to go insane.
