Frictional explain that Adventure Mode “removes all life-threatening encounters with monsters, as well as the harrowing sound and visual effects that would affect Tasi’s fear levels.” Levels are brighter too.

Hey, who turned on the lights?

A side-by-side comparison of the original Amnesia: Rebirth and its brighter Adventure Mode.

“The game still has its very serious theme and sometimes unnerving ambience, but the new mode feels a lot more like an Indiana Jones type of adventure in places where it would otherwise be more of a horror experience,” according to creative lead Fredrik Olsson.

Adventure Mode should be available in a patch on PC right now. It’ll hit PlayStation “in the next few weeks”. To mark the launch of Adventure Mode, Frictional are offering a 40% discount on the game onSteam,GOG, andthe Epic Games Store.

Alice Bee quite liked the game, but said in ourAmnesia: Rebirth reviewthat “though Rebirth takes a run at a bunch of cool and alarming concepts, it feels like it’s juggling too many to do any one of them full justice.”
