Many people were a bit worried when the return of Alone in the Dark was originally announced but it turns out the game is not bad at all, though clearly not as good as the RE series as you can imagine. Exploration and puzzles are quite engaging, atmosphere is also pretty good, but the game is a bit let down by its enemies, that are neither scary or hard to beat in normal mode. Gunplay is actually OK but it lacks feedback when hitting the monsters with bullets or melee weapons. The worst part of combat is the final boss, which made us terribly frustrated mainly because of the small arena where it takes place and the number of additional enemies it throws at you. When gunfights are not your strong suit, you don't want to end on one that leave a very bad impression. That aside, we had a pretty good time with Edward Carnby and Emily Hartwood, but maybe the price tag is a bit too high.
