Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs.

The next Frictional Games game is on the way! After playing Amnesia and Penumbra, I think these guys made the best scary/suspenseful games available. If you disagree, tell me of a scarier game and I’ll try it out. I love scary games and am always looking for new ones. Here’s a snippet from Joystiq:

A rich industrial tycoon named Oswald Mandus collapses from a feverish nightmare in which he sees a mysterious, dark machine. A “disastrous” and tragic expedition to Mexico, compounded with his illness, have stolen months from his life and he wakes determined to piece together the missing fragments of his life.

At its core, A Machine for Pigs follows the same terror-inducing principles as the first, but changes the gameplay to keep things fresh for veterans. “People going in will not know what to expect,” Grip says, noting that elements from The Dark Descent have been ripped out of the game, and new ones have been added. Neither will budge on details, only to say it remains a first-person horror title. Both agree the game has a high bar to aspire to.

“If we don’t get as many cool YouTube videos of people having fits, then I’ll be disappointed,” Pinchbeck jokes.
