The Dark Place – Alan Wake II

Described by Remedy Entertainment’s principal narrative designer Molly Maloney as “a realm of nightmares”, The Dark Place in Alan Wake’s universe is a shape-shifting prison, a surreal alt-dimension reflecting any number of realities, a manifestation of the mind’s anguish. Anxiety inducing shadows aside, Wake’s time spent in The Dark Place in Alan Wake II is unfathomably tense. A sense of powerlessness against oppressive forces juxtaposed with the capability to re-write reality in the real world.
