This video was a re-upload, as it was originally uploaded before I uploaded the video about the books and the tutorial about the controls. I had to correct a small but irksome error from the one I originally uploaded. Enjoy!
This is the best walkthrough of the game. Not just about killing zombies and survive, but also tells the stories which the game team has clearly put much efforts on. I remember playing this game with my cousin when I was little and got scared and excited at the same time. Thank you for sharing this and bringing the memories back!
Thank you very much. Watched it the whole thing. very nostalgic to me. i'm 32 now.
I'm very glad you enjoyed it! Like yourself, I find it nostalgic. I hadn't even played it before, but I remember hearing about it and it very much brings to mind the sort of survival horror games that were around when I was a kid, those that followed it within a few years, like the original PS1 Resident Evil.
Thank you so much for the gameplay! Really appreciate it! I remember I played this game in my childhood. In my opinion, it is the one of the best games in my videogaming history so far. It actually helped me to learn English (as well as many other games did).
Excellent walkthrough. I appreciate you took time to explain the books (I didn't understand most of them at the time), and show off some of the different traps your character can fall into.
This walkthrough is top notch. I loved this game when I was a kid and it absolutely terrified me and my sister. Specially when we touched the dancing ghosts in the ballroom or the shadow ghost in the fire place. Such good times. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for making this! I used to play this game at my grandparents' place, but didn't really understand much of it except that it was scary.
Thank you for the neat commentary! I had a blast : )
I was always curious about this game. bought it on steam a while back. Glad to see a good helpful video for this game. Nice work.
I wish you keep playing these things my friend . THIS IS GREAT!! :)
You obviously put a lot of work into this walkthrough, great job!
Thank you, I appreciate the playthrough.
Only a few minutes into this, just far enough to pass up dying to the gargoyles. But this is a great guide. You're very thorough. Love that you take the time to show what happens when you do certain things incorrectly. These old games required so much trial and error to beat. So if I'm going to use a guide, at least you can share the logic behind the decisions. May try to carry on ahead but saving far more regularly than my Resident Evil instincts would prefer, and just get used to redoing things. Though I also want to finish this video just to hear your enthusiasm and insights.
I can’t wait for the remake of the game to come out!
Thanks a lot for walkthrough, enjoyed how you did and explained everything, kind of sad that you have only so few videos =) But I will hope )
This game kind of creeps me out even though it's cartoony looking I enjoy very much watching gameplay with commentary helps me not feel so creeped out and understand the game better
Its such an amazing play through! Why don't you have more subs? Im doing that now!
Thanks so much!
As was mentioned by another commenter, the first book you find referencing another Infogrames game is called, "Shadow of the Comet." However, the other book, iirc, talks about another game called, "Prisoner of Ice." Sometimes both games are prefaced with "Call of Cthulu:" if that helps with your search. Both games are standard point and click adventures. However, both games are considered abandonware these days so I wish you luck if you feel like finding and playing them.
Great commentary to a game, by the way. Nice bits of info I picked up along the way.
Hey if you are still reading the comments here. The Game you talk about around 33:00 is "Shadow of the Comet" if you still want to try it. Its on GOG and more of a classic (point and click) adventure
Thank you for the walkthrough. It was extremely helpful/ I was in high school when this came out in 1992 but I had never played it until now.
In case you were curious ... you remember how you commented at the end you didn't think those falling rocks could kill you? Well, they can. I had six health points left and one of them hit me and took me out. :P Fortunately I had saved and I redid the ending.
Thanks again!
Thanks for telling me! Even all this time later, I'm still learning!
i enjoyed the gameplay thx
hi jay t maximus, this was a very thorough wakthru
wow I remember playing this game back in the 90's a lot of things make sense now, I remember doing the Library part in the dark, without know about the vagabond. I took me a lot of time to figure out how to use the lantern
Excited for the remake of this and also they are remaking Clock tower
The Sword is pretty cool. But its like a bonus puzzle as it is not needed.
Excellent walkthrough.
But, one aside.
How in the blue blazes did the devs expect us to solve this whole game without a walkthrough or a guide of some kind?
I guess gamers were more keen and sharp witted in 1992, huh?
I often wonder that about certain games too! I'm guessing some super clever or determined gamers tended to solve it by sheer force of patience and obsession, then it spread by word of mouth from there.
@@jayt.maximus9433 Like Waxworks!
Also a 1992 game, a good one but it's so complicated.
That one in particular is difficult purely for the sake of it.
I would have played this with my friend around 95-96 and it involved a HUGE amount of trial and error. We blew hours and hours attempting to do things that were impossible ("let's try using THIS dagger on the ballroom dancers, not that one." etc). But it all just became that much more rewarding when something did work.
We never did figure out some of the stuff in the end, and I had to have a different friend make a cheat sheet for me to get into the caverns.
@@JesseDw676 i wasn't even born then. Woah
@@NoBandwidth-0yeah gaming was a completely different experience back then. There was no Internet to turn to when you got stuck. You either found a friend who knew what to do or you bought a guide (if there even was one!) Or you figured it out yourself, no matter how long it took.
There’s 2 locked doors I could never open does anyone know how to unlock them
Отличное прохождение
Nice game
I wish I held as much passion for AitD as you.
I've really been into old horror games, particularly the big fifth gen titles (RE1-3, SH1, Deep Fear, etc.), I love horror point and clicks, but AitD was always too clunky for me.
good commentary
You never opened that final door in the hall way.
the Alone in the Dark 2023 version will be based on this game?
Yes.
Whats the difference in gameplay between Emily and Edward?
It's been a while now, but I'm pretty sure there isn't any really noticeable difference, if any. They have all the same puzzles, the same monsters, etc. One difference, though, is that Emily's opening gives you a hint that Edward's doesn't, about how to avoid the first enemy attack.
Edward's melee combat ( never used in this playthrough )is sluggier, but has better range.
Rest is the same
longplay = without commentary
How do you save the game? I can't figure out a way to do so.
I'm sorry if it's too late, but for me it was just a matter of pressing "Esc" and then choosing "Save" on the menu
Does anyone know how to save. This game on pc?
I play it on Steam. For me, I just press "Esc" and then it brings up the menu. Save Game is one of the options.
@@jayt.maximus9433 thanks I needed that haaha couldnt find the answer when I looked
I wish more people would explain the old / classic games instead of silently completing them.
