Alan Wake 2, from Remedy Entertainment, is a worthy sequel to the cult classic from 2010. The developers focused not on action, but on atmospheric psychological horror with a strong storyline, puzzles, and unforgettable characters.
The game tells the story of writer Alan Wake, who is trying to escape the Dark Manor, and FBI agent Saga Anderson, who is investigating a series of mysterious murders in the town of Bright Falls.
