Up until now my mobile woke me up with the opening tune from Skins. I don't hold much love for the show, but consider the melody quite catchy and upbeat.. a good way to start the day! 
 
 
But since I'm getting quite tired of it by now, I figured why not go here for inspiration.

Oh, should've added that. I'm using the Chromium nightly builds.

@tranquilchaos:
 
 
That's horrible, I apologize. Don't miss out on this game because of a single monkey possibly misrepresenting it. 
 
  
But to clarify, what I meant was that you always feel chased and don't have weapon, just as in that scene. Amnesia has very few "safe" moments, you always feel a sense of urgency. Well, and there's the difference that I died only once in Amnesia but about ten times in the Hotel scene.. so it might not have been the best comparison. 
 
 
Don't you dare not playing it because of me, I'd never forgive myself!

@ahoodedfigure: Honestly, I don't think anyone really faults the game for its amnesia theme. While some may associate poor story telling with it, once you played for an hour or so you realize that pre-amnesia-Daniel is a completely different character than post-amnesia-Daniel. After all, it's clear from the beginning that he made himself forget. What we do once we get control of him, what we decide and how we react, we're playing his second chance, in a way. 
 
While the games that gave the concept of amnesia a bad name usually make you continue being heroic, as you were before the amnesia, only to skip the - admittedly, rather complicated - work of creating a back story. In my initial post, I did in no way mean to say that they did anything wrong. Quite the opposite, comparing it to Memento was just about the highest praise I could find in my praise-box! 
 
 But, yeah, the first thing I've heard about the game was literally "You play a dude who has Amnesia and you wake up in some kind of haunted castle!", which naturally made me question how good of a story could stand on those legs. 
 
 
Cheers!

I played on German Freeshards for a while; Himmelsstadt and Alathair. Also as a GM for a while.
 
They're all slowly dying, sadly. I had some damn good times with this game. Also got to know a lot of awesome people!
