Again, this can be found in different chests and closets, but it is never in abundance. Light is still seldom found, and whilst you do gain an oil lantern to use, the oil runs out relatively quickly. New locations such as crumbling buildings and forts surprise you with creatures that run past you, and if you aren’t careful, the sickness takes over you and you are forced to replay the area again. The game opens up after the first hour or so, and Amnesia: Rebirth throws new ways at you to guarantee a fresh change of underwear. The amulet opens up new pathways, and helps you to escape the darkness, if only for a second. On your arm is a rift amulet that illuminates every time you are near to a magic pathway, something that adds to the mysteries of the game. The thing is, you never truly feel safe, even when stood next to a source of light. Every falling rock or scutter of an insect under your feet makes your heart beat faster, and when the sickness takes hold and you see the black tendrils fill up your screen, it becomes a race against time to feel safe once again. Playing Amnesia: Rebirth with headphones is truly terrifying. It seems that no matter how many you find it is never enough. These matches are in short supply, but by searching through baskets and chests will help you to find more. Doing this also helps you to know where you have been and what areas of the cave you have explored. If you run with them they’ll blow out quicker, so using them to light torches, candles, and bundles of tinder is a much better use of them. Finding matches can help to light the way for a short time, but these moments are fleeting, and you soon learn how careful you have to be with them. Whenever you stay in the darkness for too long, Tasi starts to panic, and the fear begins to consume you. You remember your husband and your child, and frantically try to piece it all together whilst fighting off the evil that is trying to infiltrate your mind. Throughout the cave, you find slithers of paper with information about why you’re there and who you are. The opening hours set the tone for the entire game, and you quickly learn how vital every source of light is to you. After finding a cave to avoid burning to death, fragments of Tasi’s memories come flooding back, and sickness takes hold of her body. Whilst you start Amnesia: Rebirth you are avoiding the heat by sticking to the shadows, but you soon realise how much you miss the light. Tasi is a woman who has been through a lot, and every twist and turn had me gripped.
With no recollection of who she is, Tasi goes looking for answers whilst trying to survive the blistering heat of the African sun. You play as a woman called Tasi Trianon whose plain crashes in the middle of an Algerian desert. Amnesia: Rebirth reminded me of my fear, and after half an hour, I felt like that scared child once again. Although you know there was nothing to be afraid of before the light went off, a creaking door or an unknown noise makes your imagination run rife. But once you are plunged into darkness, you cannot be sure. When everything is illuminated, you know exactly what is there and understand that there are no evil entities living amongst you. As a child, I couldn’t go to bed without having the landing light on, and even throughout my teenage years I’d sleep with my cherished lava lamp lit up at my bedside.
