A Nightmare Turns to Life
Alan Wake is a bestselling horror novelist who moved to the small town of Bright
Falls, Washington after suffering from insomnia and depression. Wake is able to
sleep again, but after he meets a mysterious woman, he begins to have terrible
nightmares. As he puts these nightmares on paper for a new book, he soon notices
that all the things that happen in his book are coming true right before his
eyes.
Using cinematic effects and technology such as real-time lighting, shadows and
reflections, you'll be treated to a game that is oozing with atmosphere and able
to invoke an emotional response from the player. The realistic environment
features real-time weather and light changes that effect the game play for a
remarkably immersive experience.
Explore an Entire Town
The town of Bright Falls is 100 square kilometers, and players will be able to
roam through this incredibly detailed area any way they like, roaming the town
or wandering out to the lakes, forest, satellite towns, and more. The game gives
the player goals, but how he chooses to go about completing them is up to him.
Clues are scattered throughout the town, and solving mysteries will require
players to pay close attention to the little details.
Intense Combat
In addition to solving puzzles and exploration, the game also pushes players
into serious action and combat; when night comes, creatures will take their best
shots at Alan, and you'll have to be quick with strategy as well as weapons to
beat them back.
Alan Wake presents an unusual and new gaming experience that features a
riveting, multi-layered story while giving the player the ability to freely roam
a giant environment. It supports Dolby Digital sound.
