3.5/5 ★ – LilTut2005's review of Alone in the Dark.

I was looking forward to this remake as Alone in the Dark never really gets its flowers within the horror genre. To be fair, this game played basically the same as the Resident Evil remakes, and while that’s not a bad thing, I wish it was a bit more original with its gameplay. The main complaint I have with this game however, is that the story was REALLY hard to follow for both routes. Most of the lore is spread out through memos (again, like RE) but somehow it made everything seem even more confusing by the time the game ends. The lead performances varied; while Jodie Comer was great here, David Harbour seemed to struggle within the video game voice acting world, which was unfortunate since I love his other work. Overall, I didn’t hate Alone in the Dark. It’s a nice remake, but in the grand scheme of things, I wish it had more originality.
