"Once the words had been spoken a terrible roar pierced through our souls, we grew weak and tired, burning flesh and metallic objects appeared in the room and it became dark even though the room was lit with candles. Then it happened, they started to scream, their eyes turned black, huge bloody sores started to grew on their bodies and then they fell to the floor, dead. It has once again accepted our offerings and gifted us with longer lives, only the worthy shall live.": Chapter one, verse one, Aeterni Tenebrae. You are a young traveler named Kurt Rogers. You're staying at the famous Prussian castle Die Heilige Burg. But something is not right, you are haunted by horrible nightmares. Someone here knows who you are, you will be tested. You'll have to do anything to flee from this cursed place as fast as possible. This is kind of part 2 of my first mod. This custom story will be built more on a story and great atmosphere. I will try my best to make this custom story as good as possibl
good.
Actually a really cool custom story with an interesting story and a hallucination/nightmare mechanic to it (which is scripted in specific places btw.) Good level design, the only real quirk I had was I don't believe Thomas, the prisoner tells you anything about bashing open the chest in the entrance hallway unless I didn't hear him correctly. In fact I remember him saying to bring it directly to him, so a bit of confusion there, so you kinda just have to get lucky remembering it. Other than hat though, no problems and a pretty enjoyable custom story with an interesting narrtive and two choice endings! Lasts about 40ish minutes.

I liked it. Cool atmosphere, moderately scary moments, particularly difficult puzzles not (everyone can play this story without problems)
This custom story is very well done. It rellies more on creepiness and occult lore to create a good atmosphere.
The maps are a mix of good ones and regular ones. The good ones are fine, but the others are somewhat big without real purpose.
At first the hallucinations make almost no sense, but are really good to experience. Then the story unfolds a little like Eternal Darkness (good inspiration) or something from Lovecraft. But here, the developer offer us his own variety of Ancient Ones, and is a joy to see some imagination beyond the usual stories in here.
I really enjoyed the custom story, it doesn't have too much jumpscares and that is good, but it need more true moments of terror to build tension because some part make heavy use of the full on horror.
The only draw back is that is have nothing of back story, why the protagonist got there, why is he having (at first) hallucinations.
If the developer expand upond this thing (and add a little more of back lore) this mod could be one of the best in here.
After all, the story offer a good amount of imagination so i will call this one a success.
The beginning was enough to stop playing this nonsense.
this CS need to be more easy
- Good story that (usually) made sense
- Was actually quite scary (several cheap scares though)
- Quite long (almost 2 hours)
- no major bugs or glitches
- some creativity
Although it lacks the detail and polish of some of the higher quality amnesia mods, this was actually a pretty good cs that is definitely worth a try.
