Alone In The Dark: The New Nightmare PC Q&A

The latest in the myriad of exciting nuances that players can expect from the originator of the survival/horror genre, players will now have the opportunity to play the game from two different perspectives, through Edward Carnby, the infamous supernatural detective, or Aline Cedrac, a high-spirited adventurer and anthropologist. Bringing an additional element of mystery to the storyline, Aline has her own motivations and reasons for being on the cryptic island off the coast of Maine, Shadow Island.
ÒIntense anxiety and fear are the key emotions Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare is trying to invoke in its players and having the ability to play the game from two different viewpoints enhances those emotions even further,Ó said David Riley, director of marketing for Infogrames. ÒThe character, Aline Cedrac is not only a remarkable addition to the storyline of this game but is also an indication of the shift in character style in the horror/survival genre toward a more intelligent, instinctive persona.Ó
Along with the two playable characters, there will be ten additional characters that Aline and Edward will interact with throughout the game. Each of these non-playable characters will either help or hinder their efforts of discovering the truth hidden on Shadow Island. Will Aline or Edward ever escape the sinister clutches of impending doom that lurks on this island?
