For years, developers have tried to create a game that captures the essence of the original Alone in the Dark. With the latest reimagining of the iconic original, they've finally got it.
Review of Alone in the Dark
While you can play as either one or the other, I recommend playing as Emily and Edward, the two protagonists of Alone in the Dark. Depending on which one you choose, you’ll get different cutscenes, different story elements, and some specific puzzles. You can get most of the story in one playthrough, but the game is really enhanced by playing as both characters due to the many differences.
Once you select one of the two, you can begin exploring Derceto, the asylum where Emily's uncle Jeremy disappeared. As your first playthrough, I suggest going with the cousin, Emily, as you search for her uncle, and then choosing Edward (the detective she hired to help).
