The music succeeds in bringing this out in the most gruesome way: ranging from the ringing strings in the church to the twinkling sounds in the children’s room, the whirring of contraptions in the factory, and sudden silences. However, AMFP succeeds in taking the path of horror by putting the player through constant discomfort. The allure to finish the game is lost since most of the ‘dark secret’ is evident in the game’s title. The effect, however, is weakened with repetition. How is it that a house with very dimly lit gas lamps and candles for lights, be besieged by several phone calls, with these phones situated in every other room and corridor? The calls intend to take Mandus on a guilt trip. My anachronistic speaker hypothesis is strengthened by the existence of several phoneline connections in this mansion. And the only explanation for us levitating chairs despite foreseeing no harm – is for furniture rearrangement. We do not see any monsters, so the only explanation for the bodiless voices in the mansion are anachronistic motion-triggered Bluetooth speakers.
