Tallima: I'm looking for a scary non-shooter game. I'm looking at Penumbra and Amnesia -- which are the best from those guys?
Do you know of any others?
My personal favorite is Penumbra: Overture. Black Plague was certainly frightening (and did polish some of the rougher edges of Overture), but it kinda turned the surreal mystery and horror in Overture into something a little more explicable. And in some ways, it started getting a little goofy. Never tried Requiem.
Amnesia is really good as a horror experience, but there are some things that don't personally work for me. For one thing, it's almost unrelentingly unpleasant to play.
