Description
When the wife of the best-selling writer Alan Wake disappears on their vacation, his search turns up pages from a thriller he doesn’t even remember writing. A Dark Presence stalks the small town of Bright Falls, pushing Wake to the brink of sanity in his fight to unravel the mystery and save his love.

“If our lives are already written, it would take a courageous man to change the script.”
Alan Wake fits perfectly into its genres: its plot is a most-exciting thriller and its gameplay is a nightmarish horror. I’m not a big fan of the horror genre (I get scared way too easily), but a friend recommended the game to me after I had finished playing A Plague Tale: Innocence (which I also don’t know how I had the nerve to try out), so I decided to give it a try. And I have to tell you: there was a lot of crying. Yes, there were points in the plot that made me cry, too, but mostly it was because I was so scared. I wanted to quit playing several times, simply because I knew I’d have trouble sleeping at night, but the plot was sooo good that I just had to keep going to see how things will turn out. After a while I got used to being scared (although that didn’t make the game less terrifying), and I was glad that I stuck around. I was a little sad about the game’s ending (although given that the entire thing started with a Stephen King quote, what was I expecting), and even the DLCs couldn’t satisfy me. I’m still waiting for Alan Wake’s American Nightmare to become available for purchase, and I’m even more eager to see the actual sequel, though there are no news about that, unfortunately…
