Amnesia: The Dark Descent
HORROR CENTRALITY
93 /100

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a quintessential survival-horror experience where fear, vulnerability, and survival are central to the intended gameplay. The core loop emphasizes immersion, dread, hiding or fleeing threats, and psychological disturbance, not just aesthetic horror. Removing horror would fundamentally change the game's identity.
