The Bunker
Amnesia: The Bunker is a first-person horror game from the makers of SOMA and Amnesia.
Left all alone in a desolate WW1 bunker with only one bullet remaining in the barrel, it’s up to you to face the oppressing terrors in the dark. Keep the lights on at all costs, persevere, and make your way out alive. A truly intense horror experience.
RISING TENSION
Immerse yourself in the multiple ways of tackling survival. In the shoes of the French soldier Henri Clément, you are armed with a revolver gun, a noisy dynamo flashlight, and other scarce supplies to scavenge and craft along the way. With randomization and unpredictable behavior, no play-through is the same.
Hunted by an ever-present threat reacting to your every move and sound, you must adapt your play-style to face hell. Every decision will change the outcome of how the game responds. Actions bear consequences.
ESCAPING THE NIGHTMARE
Solve things your own way in a semi-open world. You must explore and experiment to make your way out. Figure out what’s going on down here – what has happened to the other soldiers? Where have all the officers gone? What diabolical nightmare lurks underneath this hellscape? Unravel the mysteries of the Bunker and get to know the nooks and crannies of this cruel sandbox to up your odds of survival.

Completed on maximum difficulty and I found the game is always fair. Everything has been carefully considered and implemented so as to never prevent player progress or completion even in the unlikely event the player somehow consumes all possible items.
Highly customisable settings and difficulty options are available for the preferences of the player which keeps things fresh for repeated playthroughs. 10/10 pitbull named Princess simulator.

I genuinely cannot finish this game because it is so fucking scary and it triggers every single primal instinct that my ancestors had 300,000 years ago. I know it's weird to not finish the game and review it but I genuinely shit myself every time I hear even a slight sound in a dark room. 10/10

This is the first proper horror game I’ve ever finished. Thank you Amnesia (and for having immersive sim design values)!
Update: The creative lead Fredrik Olsson saw my review, yay!

This game is extremely good, I think this is the best Amnesia game, although it's underrated. Don't listen to others because this game is worth it. Amnesia games are based on the writings of HP Lovecraft, and I've always hated how for example The Dark Descent over explains and overshows the monster, when the best part of HP Lovecraft is that he explains the unexplainable. Now don't get me wrong Dark Descent has the best first half of a horror game I've ever played, never in my life have I felt fear over what was to come. But then it misses the point of mystery and despair, and that is something that I constantly felt throughout The Bunker, the constant fear and despair that the monster could hear me or find me. And also in another point The Bunker has a much better AI than Dark Descent but by a mile. Another thing, I do recommend reading the papers because I don't know how the team managed to do it, but they managed to write the story behind the game that it feels like I'm reading HP Lovecraft.

A bold, innovative new take on horror featuring a sickening nightmare: making you play as a Frenchman.

Brilliant game very tense the sound design is truly immaculate this would've made it a 10/10 HOWEVER
The main character is sadly french this had me shaking violently with anger
Luckily he doesn't talk too much but since he is french it's a 1/10 for me

Play this blind if possible and when you do, play on hard mode as anything else would lesson the experience from one of the best survival horror games in years. The mechanics all flow together to create a satisfying and intuitive game play loop. If you think something is possible to do, it probably is, so try everything out. The music is good, the atmosphere is good, the map design is good, the story is good, the setting is good. If you are a fan of horror games, this is a must play.
