If you've enjoyed puzzle platformers like Abe's Odyssey or Limbo, then this is for you.
Amnesia: The Second Dimension is a mod that turns Amnesia: The Dark Descent into a puzzle platformer with comedy and horror elements, with 2D action in a 3D environment. The aim is to create a loving parody of A:TDD, adding a new dimension to the story, whilst removing a dimension from the gameplay.
You will meet Brian, a Servant Grunt with a mind of his own, and help him to fulfil his destiny. The story unfolds at Brennenburg during the events of A:TDD. Whilst tracking Daniel through a re-imagined 2.5D Brennenburg, you’ll encounter a quaint and unseen world of friends and enemies… and frenemies. And you’ll discover that Grunts are just as scared of Brutes as Daniel is. As well as enemies, Brian will also face some tough decisions, with hilariously tragic consequences!
DISCLAIMER: This is mod is in an old-school genre, with an old-school difficulty curve. That means challenging puzzles and platforming. You've been warned! :)
Version 2.0 has the option to skip levels, plus working custom level support.
For 99% of people, the mod seems to work just fine, but if you're having any problems installing or running A:TSD, please check here first.

i GOT SOME problem with the screen resolution
Can you be more specific please, DogeMan? I will try to help if I can.
it wont start. i used the installer and showed it where the amnesia.exe file was, but then when i try to start it says "it could not find the specified device, path, or file, you may not have appropriate permission to access the item"
Hi angrymans. If you're sure your Amnesia installation is up to date (ver 1.3.1), please try running it as an administrator. Hope that helps.
ok i found out how to make it work i just have to run the installer every time i want to play it {bit odd but now it works}
That's very strange, but I'm glad you found a work-around.
when i try to run it as an administrator it just shows a rectangular black window for about half a second then it disappears. nothin happens after that
Idk if questions are still being answered here, but here's my question: what the hell do i do in the Shadow boss fight? i actually quit playing the game completely after wondering for a half hour what i'm supposed to do. It makes no sense at all.
Hi - yes, I still check in from time to time, so thanks for asking. There are 3 stages to the Shadow boss-fight:
1) The Shadow is chasing Daniel around, you have to distract it from Daniel by smashing it's "egg pod" on the far right.
2) You drop down below and the shadow chases you. You need to keep going left and get back up the elevator into the prison room before it gets you.
3) In the prison room, there are 4 egg-pods. If you break one, the Shadow will take some time regenerating it. When all 4 pods are broken at the same time, the Shadow is defeated and will leave. To reach the pods you can boost jump on the pipes and ledges.
