* Light as a combat element: As Wake journeys deeper into the
mystery of Bright Falls, the shadows close in around him. When
darkness descends, light becomes his only ally as he fights his
way to daybreak. This poses a severe problem for Alan Wake since
his enemies seemingly gain strength from the shadows, and before
long, light itself becomes his greatest ally. Players must
skillfully combine their use of light with more conventional
weapons to stand a chance.
* Realistic, interactive environment: Set in the town of Bright
Falls, the hyper-detailed environments of the Pacific Northwest
play an important role, as even the change in daylight and
weather will profoundly affect the characters and enemies in Alan
Wake. The game’s advanced rendering engine provides amazingly
realistic environments that bring this world to detailed
life–from the lush forest of evergreen trees to the quaint
small-town buildings and streets. The world of Alan Wake is alive
and real.
* Episodic narrative: The mission-based structure of Alan Wake
creates an episodic narrative similar to a deeply structured
dramatic television series, such as LOST, Twin Peaks and X-Files.
As the episodes progress, gameplay evolves to introduce new
elements and characters, escalating the level of threat and
action in the game.
