Amnesia or Penumbra

[Toonces]

There is quite a large mod community for Amnesia also, if you tire of the core game.  There's one set in an abandoned asylum that looked really interesting.  I'll see if I can find it again.  I think I originally saw it on Kokatu a year or two ago.

I learn new things around here every day.

Why are there ads popping up in the forum text?  The word tire is an ad.  Annoying.  I've also noticed it on a good dozen other forum posts.

I'm chasing you from forum to forum, it seems.

I hope you're not catching... ???

Hmm...seems like the issue has been resolved.

Ok, there are more mods than you can shake a stick at here, so it might be hard to find a decent one.

And the one I was talking about is called, White Night, which I never played but I would like to.  Maybe I'll download it today.

White Night user review (a 9):

"Inspired heavily by the shady atmospheres of psychological juggernauts of various pedigree, but perhaps no more so than by Session 9 or Jacob's Ladder/Silent Hill, is an Amnesia total conversion mod titled White Night of which I had the pleasure of playing for the better part of the last two evenings for a total of about 3.5-4 hours of game play.

White Night has a palpable atmosphere that makes you realize fully the depths of the human mind, and of the shadows hanging over us in our subconscious. Tanshaydar has tapped into the same fountain of knowledge that writers such as Mark Z. Danielewski or contemporary mod creator Rumpel, of Afraid of Monsters and Cry of Fear fame.

Surrounded by asylum bars, rusted iron, gritty vents and vaulted, groined archways of pseudo modern architecture you will trudge through a thoughtful array of puzzles. Some of them, I admit, are actually kind of irritating. (Navigating a room of obstacles, tubs, half walls and uneven terrain to spin *really* tiny knobs on *really* thin piping was kind of annoying.) Nonetheless, all of this has been expertly realized and lovingly built among the hardships of simply one modder, Tanshaydar, whose accomplishments here are polarizing given the short development cycle (Only 10 months).

This is the best mod for Amnesia out there right now, and it is my contender for the best story of the year in Moddb's upcoming contests. Well done to everyone involved, bumps and all, this is one hell of an experience.

If I had to update my review without changing the score, I will say that the recently circulated notion that White Night is almost uncannily like Korsokovia is correct, and worth noting. Many people find it impeccable in similarity, almost as a remake or re imagining. I am neutral on the subject, but having played both, it is a substantial similarity. "

Nothing we did here.

Toonces period up there looks marvy.

I was trying to embed a video, but not a Youtube video. 

Between not being able to embed videos, and not enough smileys, I'm about to head back to some other wargaming website.   >:(

Installing on my macbook now...preparing myself to be scared!
