The latest work in the survival horror series “Amnesia: The Bunker” (Amnesia: The Bunker), developed by the Swedish game team Frictional Games, has been released on multiple platforms, and received great praise on Steam the day after it was released.
The background of “Amnesia: The Bunker” is set in World War I. At the beginning, the player will operate the protagonist Henri Clement and his comrade Lambert to fight against the German army in the front trenches. In the end, the two were discovered by a German patrol and woke up after a howitzer exploded. The main character finds himself in a mysterious bunker healing station.
After entering the bunker, the game begins to survive and explore, and you will soon find a letter about Dr. Josinski, describing a certain “something” affecting his mind, and also hinting at the most terrifying enemy in the game. In order to escape from the bunker, the player must find the arsenal to obtain explosives and blow the exit.
The gameplay of “Amnesia: The Bunker” is closely related to the interaction of objects. Players can check whether the object has a “hand” symbol through the viewing angle at any time, click and interact, whether it is picking up, flipping or throwing, it is in line with the “Thriller” as a whole. Operation is very close.
The most frightening thing about the game is the monsters that keep chasing and killing players. When exploring the bunker area by area, walking, opening doors, pulling rope lights (which make noise when charging) or the sound of fuel generators will attract monsters. Players must also solve puzzles with limited item resources (a box of bullets looks like there is only one round in fact) and find a way to escape.
In fact, the overall map area of ”Amnesia: The Bunker” is not too large, and the duration of the strategy ranges from 2 to 4 hours. The main reason is that a large part of the game presents a sense of pressure and tension, such as flashlights. Power, the generator’s light source, forces players to make quick decisions (and prepare to die if they panic).
Coupled with the constant pursuit of the unkillable monster, you will soon feel the fear of insufficient ammunition resources and firepower, which is also the main reason why many players praise this game.
Also don’t forget, when “Amnesia: The Bunker” was launched, Frictional Games also gave out the old work “Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs” (Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs) on the GOG platform for free for a limited time, and the period is only until June 9th .
“Amnesia: The Bunker” has been released on PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam and other platforms on June 6, and the price of Steam is NT$408.
