About Alone in the Dark: Illumination™

A darkness has fallen over the town of Lorwich. Monstrous hordes emerge from beyond the realm of nightmares to sow chaos on the land. As one of four heroes, you must battle the minions of the old ones with the force of arms, and the power of illumination.

Inspired by the writing of H.P. Lovecraft, Atari’s Alone in the Dark series is recognized as the “Father of the Survival Horror Genre”. Alone in the Dark: Illumination explores this dark legacy in a terrifying action-horror experience.

Battle through dynamic environments filled with bloodthirsty beasts. Build your party as you rescue your companions including the Witch, Engineer and Priest, each with a unique set of special abilities and weapons.

Danger lurks in every shadow. While your friends may help, at the end of the night you are always Alone in the Dark.
  • Four Unique Heroes: The Hunter, the Witch, the Priest and the Engineer each offer unique gameplay experiences with distinctive weapons, skills and powers to unlock.
  • Play as a Team or Alone in the Dark: Play with all four characters in co-operative multiplayer mode, build smaller teams for greater challenge, or face the darkness alone.
  • Diverse Environments: Four campaigns with multiple levels take players through the blasted landscape of Lorwich, and deep below to unearth the mysteries of this forsaken township.
  • Eldritch Horror: Inspired by the writing of H.P. Lovecraft, beings from beyond madness, including Roof Walkers, Shapes and Spawns will haunt your nightmares.
  • Dynamic Environments: Interact with dynamic environmental puzzles to change the structure of the map and advance your quest.
  • Harness the Power of Illumination: Light up maps to create safe zones, and damage your foes.

Alone in the Dark: Illumination is the worst type of bad game. It’s not “so-bad-it’s-good” nor is it deeply flawed but with some interesting ideas; it’s just plain old bad. It's a cold, cynical product that was either made by a machine or by people who were completely dead on the inside. Watch the full review here: https://youtu.be/bnj7iIOHk-0

The only time I had fun was stepping onto a train car at the very start of the level and instantly breaking the walk cycle.

Alone in the Dark: Illumination ist ein Third-Person Shooter mit Horrorelementen. In Alone in the Dark: Illumination können wir entweder als "Jäger (Ted Carnby), Hexe (Celeste), Priester (Father Henry Giger) oder Techniker (Gabriella Sanders)" spielen, denn einen richtigen/festen Hauptcharakter gibt es nicht. Im Spiel geht es um die Bergarbeiterstadt Lorwich welche von einer übernatürlichen Macht, welche die restlichen Einheimischen schlich als "The Darkness" bezeichnen, geplagt wird. Außerdem wandeln jetzt mysteriöse Kreaturen durch die Stadt die die Leute umbringen. Eine einheitliche/zusammenhängende Story-Kampagne gibt es nicht. Stattdessen werden wir in einzelne, kleine Missionsbündel (Unterteilt in verschiedene Stadtgebiete) geworfen um in den Missionen stupide, repetitive und uninteressante Aufgaben zu lösen wie bspw.. einen Generator aktivieren oder bestimmte Items finden. Und das Gimmick des Spiels: Gegner können nur getötet werden, wenn si in einer Lichtquelle stehen, was aber kein großes Problem darstellt. Was die Grafik betrifft, ist Alone in the Dark: Illumination auch keine Augenweide, ganz im Gegenteil. Während der Vorgänger "Alone in the Dark" von 2008 zwar auc…

This version of Alone in the Dark is what I call a Closet Game that people put away and eventually get back to it after there developers get a fix for it. Because of the many bugs like the battery placement issue, many fans have abandon it, but if you can put your bug feelings aside, the cooperative aspect of the game is uniquely fun. If your new to the game, don't let the bugs stop you, keep on going, trust me!
