Alone in the Dark: Illumination

Know somebody who might be like this game?

Summary

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.

But, the games has a huge twist when there is light in the dark, illuminating the surroundings so there is contrast between light and dark, two polar opposites.

23 years, and this is how it ends? Horrifying, and not in a good way. Illumination is an utter failure on all fronts, a derivative, boring and disappointing shooter. What a sad ending for this legendary series.

How on earth could this game make it to a release state? And why would Atari kill the franchise that started survival horror and made Resident Evil what it is today?

I used to like the Alone in the Dark series, but this edition looks and feels like Wes Craven **** into a box fan and made a game of it. I'dI used to like the Alone in the Dark series, but this edition looks and feels like Wes Craven **** into a box fan and made a game of it. I'd expect this from a Pre-Alpha release, but the gameplay just feels like a bore. As someone who tries to find the best in most negative releases, this game feels like a 2002 game with ambition kicked to the curb.
