What it is
Amnesia: Rebirth is a first-person survival horror game from Frictional Games, released in 2020. You play as Tasi Trianon, who wakes in the Algerian desert and must piece together her past while facing the dangers around her. Exploration, puzzles and careful management of limited physical and mental resources shape the journey. Creatures threaten Tasi, and the game asks players to use their surroundings and judgment to escape rather than confront them directly. An Adventure Mode offers the story and exploration without the horror focus. The game is listed for Windows and Linux, and its Steam features include single-player, achievements, full controller support, a level editor and Steam Workshop. Other listed features include Remote Play on TV and Remote Play Together. Frictional Games both develops and publishes the game.
