Alan Wake had some running themes of surrealism and uncertainty that unfortunately weren't fully realised from start to end. Despite this, there are some great moments where this stuff really shines.

Today I look at the good and bad of Alan Wake's attempts to subtly creep you out with its surreal vibes, and long for Remedy to hurry up and make a sequel.
