Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare

About This Game

Darkworks' revival of the Alone in the Dark series leaned hard into survival horror conventions, pairing protagonist Edward Carnby with a partner you switch between to solve puzzles across a shadow-infested island. The dual-character structure and flashlight-dependent combat gave it a distinct feel from Resident Evil contemporaries, though the ambitious design didn't fully land. Worth picking up as a mid-tier PS2 horror title that shows what Infogrames was attempting with the dormant franchise before the disastrous 2008 reboot.
