Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a survival horror adventure video game by Frictional Games, released in 2010 for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux operating systems, in 2016 for the PlayStation 4 platform and in 2018 for the Xbox One. The game features a protagonist named Daniel exploring a dark and foreboding castle, while trying to maintain his sanity by avoiding monsters and other terrifying obstructions.
The game does away with anything resembling a combat system, relying on Daniel hiding or escaping from monsters, and gameplay is limited to maintaining a sanity gauge (affected by being in the dark or witnessing things that are disturbing) and puzzle interaction. Much of the game is played in darkness, with the player needing to find oil to light a lantern to be able to see and stave it off and maintain Daniel’s mental faculties.
