Hey guys, you've probably heard of a game called "Amnesia". It is a PC Horror Game which involves around the journey of Daniel, in his quest to kill Alexander of Brennenburg. Daniel wakes up in the castle of Brennenburg in Prussia, with now knowledge of himself, besides his name, where he's from, and that something is hunting him. He later finds a note from his former self, which says that he erased his own memory, and that he needs to descent into the Inner Sanctum and kill Alexander. While the reason for this is not clear, after finding notes and diary entries, it is revealed that while Daniel was on an exploration trip in Africa, he came across a mysterious orb that seems to change shape. But because of the orb, he is plagued by nightmares and pursued bye a shadow. Alexander of Brennenburg, a Prussian Baron, promises Daniel that he can help him and invites him to his castle. But Daniel's hope is crushed when what he has to supposedly do to escape from the shadow is revealed. Alexander is actually on the hunt for a mysterious "vitae". Vitae is collected from inside human beings. Alexander is actually an other-worldly being who wants vitae and the orb that Daniel has found to return to his world. When he finds Daniel, he thinks he can kill two birds with one stone by making him perform torture and kill people to collect vitae, and he can take the orb from Daniel. Once Daniel understands that his only hope of salvation is a lie, he drinks the potion and erases his memory, and the game begins.
The main objective of the game is to complete various tasks and puzzles to find his way to the Inner Sanctum and kill Alexander. But this does not come without challenges. The Gatherers are a group of deformed humanoid creatures, which were created when Alexander poisoned his subjects, and they were disfigured and tasked with patrolling Brennenburg Castle. They go around and try to find you, and kill you in 1 or 2 hits if they get close enough. Daniel cannot use any weapons, even though there are saw, brooms, and other objects that could be used as weapons. Your only choice is to hide or run from them. You go around collecting oil for your lantern, and tinderboxes to light up torches, candles, etc. If you are exposed to scary things, such as the monsters, or you stay in the dark too long, you lose your sanity, which distorts your view, and makes your character harder to control. When you light something up or use your lantern, you regain some of your sanity, but when you finish puzzles, you regain most of it. You go in many rooms, with many challenges, some using speed, intelligence, patience, and perseverance. There are multiple endings, but I'll leave that for you to figure out.
