First Game! Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Store Page:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/57300/

How Long to Beat? 8 hours.

Total Steam play time:
12 minutes.

Huh? Yeah, well, screw this amazing game. 2 of those minutes were tweaking the graphic options. About 10 minutes of actual play time. Playing in the daylight with headphones on, I was complete immersed and scared out of my mind. I got as far as lighting the first candle. I never want to play this game again. Too scary.

My rating:
5 out of 5

Verdict?
Uninstall! (I'm just too scared!)


Next game?
And Yet It Moves

What is this blog?

I recently discovered that on http://howlongtobeat.com/ it will scan your Steam account and tell you how long it will take to beat your entire collection.

As of 8/30/2015 I'm at 117 days and 4 hours.

Since I recently re-formatted and installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 (http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/07/how-to-do-a-clean-install-of-windows-10-from-windows-7-and-8/), I thought this moment would be fortuitous and I would only install one game at a time, starting alphabetically, and try and beat them (or at least play them once...).

Some games I've played before (and those will be noted), others have never been installed.

Here we go...
