Remember awhile ago that a single-player horror mod called Afraid Of Monsters was released for Half-Life? It was flawed but quite a cool piece of work that was genuinely fightening at times and drew inspiration from Silent Hill among other things. Well because the author at the time was inexperienced (believe it or not he was 12-14 years old when he made the original), his vision of AOM didn't come out quite how he wanted it, so with the help of another to sort out new code, they took AOM and remade it.
This isn't just a straight remake though, the original AOM had just under 20 maps, this one has 53 and this is because there are several different non-linear paths through the game that will result in one of 4 possible endings, making this a perfect game to replay at your leisure. There are no more Half-Life reskins, models have been replaced and new monsters have been added. There are also new weapons but you can only carry one of each type, so if you're carrying a knife you can swap it for a hammer and back again, same goes for pistols, smgs, shotgun and revolvers.
To add more tension to the mix, the flashlight now uses batteries that you must find hidden around the various environments, if you run out it will recharge at a slow rate and will only last 30 seconds, so make sure you find those batteries, every last item and bullet in this game counts!
All the old maps are in there with added improvements and new, never before seen areas with new puzzles as well.
