Amnesia: The Dark Descent didn’t just scare players—it redefined horror gaming. In this video essay, I dive deep into how Amnesia traumatized an entire generation of gamers, reshaped the indie horror genre, and created a blueprint that developers still follow today.
From the terrifying sound design to the psychological torment of running with no way to fight back, this isn’t just a game—it’s an experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
If you’ve ever felt true fear in a video game, you’ve probably played Amnesia. Let’s unpack why it still haunts us today.
