The 'Alone in the Dark" movie by Uwe Boll was the worst thing to happen to the series - until this game. It feels like the developers just stopped working at some point and went home.- GameStar

I won't stop until I've seen every little clip and then I'll hope for another game. The concept will work two, three or even four times. Agatha Christie didn't only write one book either.- GameStar

It's an RPG with a soul. Every little detail of it. Obsidian didn't just deliver what they promised, they built a bridge between the past and the present. It may be just one add-on away from being the best RPG ever released.- GameStar
