First playthrough review time. Alone in the Dark is one of the earliest survival horror games. It uses supernatural horror ideas and focuses more on mood than action. The graphics look very old now, but at the time the mix of 3D characters and pre-rendered backgrounds felt new. The game is mostly about moving through a large mansion, finding clues, and solving puzzles while staying away from danger. Supplies are limited, especially ammo, so using them without thinking can cause problems later. Fighting is not always needed, and many situations can be avoided. Sound and setting do most of the work during play. Overall, the game is about exploring a mansion, solving puzzles, and dealing with danger using limited resources. Some parts have not aged well, like the controls and camera angles, but it still shows the early style of survival horror games. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3189299588

Alone in the Dark is a straight up classic, no arguing that. This is one of the games that basically built survival horror before it even had a name. But playing it now? yeah… it’s more of a f*cking historical artifact than an actual game you sit down to enjoy for hours. The atmosphere is still there, you can see the ideas, the tension, the whole blueprint for stuff like Resident Evil. But the controls? pain. The movement feels like you’re wrestling a tank in slow motion, and half the time you’re fighting the game more than the enemies. Camera angles, clunky combat, weird pacing… it’s all part of that old school charm, sure, but let’s not pretend it hasn’t aged well in some areas. Still, you’ve gotta respect it. Without this, a lot of your favorite horror games wouldn’t even exist. Just don’t go in expecting a smooth experience, because it absolutely isn’t. It’s a classic, yeah… but more of a “play it once and say you did” kind of deal than something you’ll keep coming back to. Final score: 7/10

Like a weird mish mash of what would be Survival Horror and a point and click adventure game. I think this is necessary to play if only to see the birth of Survival Horror and how Resident Evil completely streamlined every idea in this game for the better. (Except for dying in multiple cheap and silly ways, but you can't really do that without a quicksave)
