In Amnesia, you wake up in a hotel room with no idea who you are, where you are, or why someone wants you dead. And no, this isn’t a gritty FPS—it’s a text adventure. That’s right, no graphics, just your imagination and 40,000 lines of written paranoia. Written by Thomas M. Disch (yes, the actual science fiction author), it’s part mystery, part existential crisis simulator. The game is unforgiving and occasionally absurd, but it’s also strangely captivating. You’ll learn things. Mostly that life without memory is tough, and everyone in New York wants something from you.
