Amnesia the dark descent pioneered the first person survival horror genre and many games since its creation have tried to mimic the core gameplay but have missed the mark. This is one of the only games that i have played where i have been genuinely terrified and have needed breaks in between gameplay. Everything about this game is amazing apart from one thing (i'll talk about it later in this review) the environment and audio design is frightening and really well made and had me in awe during some segments. although i only encountered enemies a few times during my playthrough they were for the most part very stressful and scary encounters. Puzzles are another main part of amnesia which i feel as tho some of them are way too easy but those that rely on using the environment (like throwing a rock at a lock to open it) felt very refreshing in a genre so used to overwhelming you with 50,000 different key items. The only downside of the game i felt was the ending, it felt very slow and lackluster in comparison to the amazing rest of the game. I've always been intrigued at the story of the amnesia games and this game perfectly tells it to you, instead of having you read 100's of notes around the castle to find out the lore (they still do that to an extent) most of the main lore is well told during puzzles and just exploring the castle. After finishing all the endings this game has a great impression of me and i think it might be the greatest survival horror game i've ever played excluding Resident evil 4. I can see why this game is so highly praised and i would have to give it a 9.9/10 the only bad part is as i said the ending.
