A modern take on the series' return to its roots.
You can tell the developers have genuine love for the original 1992 game, while also adopting gameplay elements from the modern Resident Evil remake titles. The gameplay isn't perfect - it can be a tad on the easy side, and combat can feel a little janky, but it makes up for it by actually retaining survival horror elements, beautiful environments, fun characters, a solid soundtrack and an engaging story!This is an actual survival horror title, meaning it may not be for everyone; combat is not the priority, and there is a lot of back-tracking. Also, similarly to the original, there are notes you can find that are pretty long but are actually voiced.This is not a remake, by the way, but a reboot! It borrows elements and characters from the original story but the narrative itself is completely different.If you're a survival horror fan, give it a try! I think it's fair to say that Alone in the Dark is officially back! :)

Game Journalists must've played a different game.
TLDR: 8/10If you are at all a fan of survival horror games, especially classic ones, this is a definite must buy. I have no idea how this game got so many horrible reviews at launch. Maybe the game launched in an unplayable state, that I don't know. But after a price drop and a few patches this game is definitely worth it. Gameplay feels like a game straight from the golden age of PlayStation 1 and 2. Scares are very mid, but atmosphere is top tier. Story is all over the place, but solid if you read all the files and clues. Finally, replayability is pretty great thanks to the game differeing enough between each character and multiple endings.For casual players, it won't wow you, but for horror fans, this a good fun time.

Don’t listen to game journos
I am about two hours in and loving this game. Sure combat is a little janky but the story, atmosphere and voice acting are amazing. Very fun and creative. If you enjoy Lovecraftian horror (and don’t expect COD in 1920 Lousianna), this one is for you.

great rent game for the weekend
The voice acting and game graphics are amazing, and I loved the overall look of the game. But the gameplay did become tedious at times, especially the parts where you had to search for clues or wait over time for something to happen. I would have liked more action or some other features that would've made it less repetitive. It's a good game for a rental, or I'd say it's worth buying for $19, but not any more than that.
