This is a divine game! It is clear that the authors were inspired by King's works. Throughout the entire playthrough, the plot keeps you in suspense and doesn’t let you go until the end. We have to play as the writer Alan Wake, who has a creative crisis. He and his wife decided to go on vacation to a quiet town, where the adventure began. Alan ends up in his own book and has to survive. The gameplay is a 3rd person shooter. We shoot people who have been swallowed up by darkness, but ordinary bullets do not affect them. First you need to burn the darkness out of them, and then shoot them. It is burned out with a flashlight, a very interesting feature, by the way. I'll give the game 10/10, even though the ending was very blurry. I recommend it to everyone.

Alan Wake is one of those games that captivates with its plot and atmosphere.

The plot of the game is really great, in the spirit of the television series Twin Peaks.

Anyone who likes games specifically for their plot will definitely like Alan Wake.

When the very first phrase in the game was a discussion about horror books with references to King, then there was a strong feeling that I would like the game and the feeling did not let me down. The gloomy atmosphere and chilling moments will not leave horror fans indifferent. Almost everything in the game is perfect: the hero is not at all a berserker, tearing through crowds of monsters left and right, but an ordinary writer, who is often better off running to the light than fighting, and the gloomy soundtrack and design, and especially the plot, when you don’t understand the whole story until the very end happens, but you only build theories that are destroyed at the next plot twist and so on until you reach the final credits.

An excellent game, very close to the interactive movie genre. The plot is simply excellent, worked out to the smallest details, but you understand this only towards the end of the game, when all the details add up to a complete picture. The gameplay eventually begins to get boring due to its monotony, but its various features (searching for manuscript pages, listening to radios, etc.) compensate for this. I recommend it to everyone, the best game of 2010!

8.5

Alan's tool in the fight against darkness would be very useful in the modern real world. I went through it for the first time back in 2013; my mentality was not yet mature at that time, and then I could not understand the whole meaning of this work for the corresponding reasons. But at the release of the remastered, I returned and even then I began to look for meaning, to look for connections in every smallest detail, and believe me, there are a lot of them. Frankly, not many Remedy products make it onto my personal list of favorites, but a story about a writer with a deep plot definitely takes its rightful place. Sometimes you wonder where this confrontation is going on, in reality or just in Alan’s head. Everyone will find the answer for themselves. The Control project, to be honest, did… Read full
