Frictional Games Forum (read-only)

Hello, I love Penumbra and I finished all 3... But I want a game that's like it, for example with flashlights, scary and no guns(I hate horrors with guns D. Also it will be good a First Person =).

I don't know any games like Penumbra. Though it would be nice to see more games like it.
I suggest you to wait until Amnesia comes out ;D

Check out this thread I made some time ago. I'm sure you'll find some goodies in there, if you have the time to read it through.

Here's some off the top of my mind

Scratches
Darkness Within: In Pursuit of Loath Nolder
Rhiannon: Curse of the Four Branches
The Dark Fall series
The Lost Crown: A Ghost-Hunting Adventure


These are all horror adventure/puzzle games using pre-rendered graphics in first person view (ok lost crown is 3rd person). It's maybe not exactly what you wanted but I can't think of any other game that's like Penumbra and has no weapons.

I think you mean this one.


Oh, and in case you haven't played Penumbra Tech Demo from 2006, I'd suggest you to download that one and play it. It's different than any of the newer games... and yes, it's free.

Heh... I bought Scratches for pc... It's so cool and complicated... So far I'm just at the scratching noises for first time... I'll try the others when I finish this one.

How very strange, I can't believe I missed that! Thanks for the head up!

I tried to Google your thread earlier today and it gave the same. It's strange indeed.

This probably has to do with the remake of the forums, threads were moved to new addresses.

Cryostasis looks to be very promising from watching its gameplay alone. Seems to be interactive but not as much as Penumbra. Its set in a cold barren environment like Penumbra and flashlights are your main source of light, there is some combat, but a lot looks like melee. Your health is warmth so you find heat sources to regenerate life. Looks pretty good, but I'm not completely sold into it yet.
