Probably my 2nd favorite Frictional game. Penumbra: Black Plague is everything I could ask from a horror game. I love the atmosphere, the music, the premise, just everything. The only real complaints I have about the game is that some of the puzzles are really nonsensical and that the ending is a really slow nothing burger of a finale. Clarence will always be one of my favorite game companions (even thought he IS a bit annoying) and he was the only real break from all the hiding and chasing in this game. This is definitely a must play if you love the horror genre and with how cheap it is during steam sales there’s no harm in giving the Penumbra series a shot.
