DESCRIPTION

The original Alone in the Dark is credited by many as being the very first "Survival Horror" video game. This release in the series pays homage to its trailblazing predecessor by offering the same dark mix of puzzle solving and action-oriented gameplay in a new story featuring well-defined characters and detailed environments. Players take on the role of either paranormal investigator Edward Carnby or archeologist Aline Cedrac, guiding the chosen hero through dark corridors filled with deadly creatures and hidden clues. The storylines of the two heroes intertwine but each character follows a slightly different plot and provides a unique gaming experience. Grammy winner and former Police drummer Stewart Copeland composed the theme for this release in the series. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
