Love this series!

I just started playing this game for my YouTube Channel and I am loving it like crazy! and I have a few questions for anyone out there! After I play through the dark descent and A machine for pigs and most likely penumbra, is there any other similar atmospheric/horror games that are similar to this series? Can't wait to play A machine for pigs next!

A Machine for Pigs isn't as good as The Dark Descent, so don't expect as good game.

I have been looking for some games for my own channel as well. There are lots if you dig around a little, even more if PC isn't the only platform you plan to play on.

Games coming in mind right now (not in any particular order and may vary in quality): Alien: Isolation, Among the Sleep, Outlast, Scratches, Doorways, Condemned, Cryostasis, Cry of Fear, Dead Space, S.T.A.L.K.E.R..

In defence of AMFP, It's more focused on telling it's story(which isn't a bad thing) then scares/monster encounters but for what it is it's brilliant. The recommended mind-set when going to play AMFP is to expect a more story-focused game with less monster encounters/scares and it's more linear, don't get hopes to high.

I say AFMP is just as good as TDD but in a different type of way.

That's true. But AMFP was not meant to be a clone of the original. It is more like a drama instead of a frightening horror game, but with a brillant story. The story is even better than in the original - and even the best of all video games/movies/books out there. Music and atmosphere are also from highest qualities.

The only disappointing are the missing interaction, simple puzzles and less scarifying compared to the original.

But it's still one of the best horror games out there. It's just a different masterpiece!
