Reviews

[Mega · Rating 3 out of 5]

You know, I myself may not have played all of the games, but isn't Alone in the Dark supposed to be a horror series? Because this more adventure Indiana-Jones setting and this dialogue certainly doesn't seem that scary to me. Or maybe that's the reason why this comic is supposed to be scary, because it isn't like the games. It's kinda like how the later games in the series are scary because they are bad, and this is giving off that same vibe.

Interesting comic to introduce the characters, but it lefts a lot of question and we get a few named characters (like miss Armitage and his military entourage), is left as if for more stories, but is presented a single tome, maybe an intro into the game (which I remember it wasn't that good when it came out).
