About:
Alone in the Dark 2 is the second installment of the series and a direct sequel to Alone in the Dark. Like its predecessor, the game uses hybrid 2D-3D graphics and will require you to solve a lot of puzzles while fighting zombie pirates along the way. Some enemies can be killed with the numerous weapons at your disposal while others need to be defeated via trickery. Apart from Edward Carnby the game also includes a short section where you play as the little Grace Saunders. Grace obviously cannot fight and thus the sections featuring her are all about fast reflexes and wits to evade and outsmart the enemies.
Story:
It is Christmas of 1924, three months after Alone in the Dark. "Supernatural Private Eye" Edward Carnby and his partner Ted Striker are investigating the kidnapping of young girl Grace Saunders. The trail of clues leads to an old mansion named Hell's Kitchen - the home of infamous gangster One-Eyed Jack and his crew. Edward decides to pick up the trail after he learns of Ted's disappearance. When he soon finds out that Ted has been murdered, he goes deeper on the case.
