Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Психологический триллер от создателей популярной серии «Пенумбра».

Очнувшись, Дэниел обнаружил, что находится в каком-то странном замке. Его воспоминания о прошлом смутны… Повсюду лишь узкие темные коридоры. Где-то слышен крик… Он все ближе. Надо бежать!

Проснуться...

Вам предстоит нескончаемый кошмар. Это путешествие вы не забудете никогда.

Искать...

Лишь обследовав все укромные уголки и жуткие коридоры, лишь полностью проникнув в сознание главного героя, вы сможете по крупицам воссоздать в памяти прошлое. Это будет волнительное путешествие по самым темным закоулкам человеческого сознания.

Слышите негромкий звук шагов? Или это лишь плод вашего воображения?

Познать...

Никаких скачков во времени и пространстве. Все, что случится, — случится здесь и сейчас. Реалистичная физика, игра света и тени, звуковые эффекты — благодаря их сочетанию вы полностью окунетесь в происходящее и узнаете всю историю — от начала до конца.

В непроглядном мраке что-то есть… Оно приближается… Быстро и неумолимо.

Выжить...

«Амнезия. Призрак прошлого» — это мир страха, где опасность таится везде. Все, что вы можете — прятаться, бежать либо использовать смекалку. Попробуйте выжить здесь.

Next Project announced

Helsingborg, Sweden (September 19, 2008) – Frictional Games announces that they are hard at work with a new, currently untitled, horror game. The upcoming project is set in the late 18th century and will take the player on a thrill-ride through the depths of madness and explore the dark side of the human emotions. Frictional Games promises to deliver a truly frightening first person survival horror game.

The primary aim is to make the game as scary and atmospheric as possible. "There are plenty of ideas that we never realized in the Penumbra games. We think it is possible to go a lot further in terms of evoking unsettling feelings and a sense of dread in the player", says co-founder and sound designer Jens Nilsson. The atmosphere is not the only focus of the game though and Frictional Games is determined to deliver a solid gameplay experience.

"We intend to give players a lot of freedom in our upcoming game", explains Thomas Grip, co-founder and lead programmer at Frictional Games. "Instead of following a laid out route we want players to choose for themselves how they want to progress and how deep they want explore various aspects of the game world".

Though the project will have a large focus on freedom, story will not be neglected. Frictional Games have been hard at work to develop a multitude of new ways to tell a story and yet allow for a dynamic gameplay. The goal is to make the story and gameplay converge and create a truly engaging and unique experience.

Release date is currently unknown. Stay tuned for more information by visiting the web site http://www.nextfrictionalgame.com/ or by signing up for the newsletter at http://www.frictionalgames.com/propaganda/.
