'''''Alone in the Dark''''' was the progenitor of the [[Survival Horror]] genre in 1992. It was also the first game to feature [[Sprite Polygon Mix|3D polygon characters over fixed 2D backgrounds]], allowing for cinematic camera angles. Featuring a mix of combat, puzzle-solving, inventory management and exploration, the game was well-received and made a rather large impression at the time. Set in the 1920's, the game had players take the role of private detective Edward Carnby or socialite Emily Hartwood, who were locked in the haunted mansion of Derceto, searching for a way out while battling zombies, monsters and a lurking evil inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft.
