BT:Amnesia: The Dark Descent was one of the best horror games ever made, and there are three clearly identifiable aspects of it which led to that success. Despite using the oldest videogame plot device in the book, it weaved a fantastically grim tale about a gentle-voiced man named Daniel who, in a desperate bid to stop some supernatural monstrosity eating his soul or whatever, himself became more of a monster than the lovechild of Hitler and Emperor Palpatine. It was also more bowel-quaking than a toilet full of wasps, and it featured several brilliant mechanics which both aided the game's sense of exploration and complemented the terror threaded through the setting, story and atmosphere.
