HALLOWEEN CHALLENGE
Posted: 30 Oct 2011, 20:48
Step 1: Buy Amnesia off Steam for $4 during Halloween time: http://store.steampowered.com/app/57300/
Step 2: Play it in the dark, or with friends.
This game is pretty much survival, you cannot kill any of the monsters. You have to constantly run and hide as you're trying to make your way through the castle while trying to retain your sanity. The voiceacting and story is quite compelling so your sure to enjoy it.
I was playing this game with some friends in one of our university's common rooms last night with the computer HDMI'ed to the TV so we could all watch. It was so insane -- we were up until 4am freaking the hell out. I eventually died when one of the monsters chased me down.
One of the biggest fear factors is how when you're running away from these monsters you have to take the time to open a door that usually you have to pull towards you, or pull levels, etc. while a monster is chasing you. It makes you freak the hell out.
Here's some freakout/gameplay videos of what to expect:
