Rain pouring down out there? Looking for a good reason to stay indoors? Look no further!

Amnesia: The Dark Descent and the entire Frictional Games library is part of the Steam Autumn sale with discounts up to 85%.

Autumn sales also mean one big thing…


Steam Awards mean a ton for a small studio like ours. We poured a lot of passion and hard work into this project and we are tremendously proud of what we achieved!

With Amnesia: The Bunker we wanted to design systems and gameplay that both offer something new and truly challenging to the players, which we think we achieved. If you agree we encourage you to nominate us in the “Best game you suck at” category in this year's Steam Awards - vote here!

For a reminder as to why, please check out this video:


Either way you chose to vote we want to thank you for playing the game and being part of our community, it means the world to us.

Hey everyone,

Hope you have been trying out and enjoying the recent Steam Workshop support for Amnesia: The Dark Descent.

There are already over 180 (!) mods available to try out - this is truly insane and we are so happy to see the community engaged after all these years!

So, today we’re enabling Total Conversion support for the workshop as well, meaning you can go buck wild with the mods, if you want to.

Today we’re also launching the anticipated Halloween Update for Amnesia: The Bunker!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1944430/Amnesia_The_Bunker/

This update brings a bunch of new features, adding new horrors and heaps of replay value.

If you've beaten the game once you can challenge yourself with the new Shell Shock mode - or play around with the settings in Custom Mode.

Happy Halloween! 🎃
