Fleeing Brenneburg picks up where The Dark Descent ends. In the Orb Chamber after killing Alexander, right as he and his dreams vanish in a bluish mist. At this point, the shadow nor any of the servants are present in the Brennenburg castle. It's empty. Almost. Feeling of guilt is what Daniel goes through as he remembers leaving Agrippa alone, trapped in his human vessel, before he starts his journey out of the castle. Being in the lowest depths of the castle, Daniel has to go and follow his own footprints back. He was confident in his ability of ascending out of the darkness after he successfully descended into it. But something was off. He knew the feeling very well, the feeling of something lurking in the shadows. Going through The Chancel, Cistern Entrance, The Cistern, Prison North at a steady pace, with no signs of slowing down.. Daniel had frozen in fear. A lifeless body, nowhere to be found. Making him wonder whether the hellfire to wash away his sins was yet to be put out.

Stealth

The game, set in 1839, casts the player in the role of Daniel, a young man from London, who awakens in the dark halls of Prussian Brennenburg Castle with little to no memory about himself or his past. All he can remember is his name, that he lives in Mayfair and that something is hunting him. Shortly after waking, Daniel finds a note written by himself that explains how he purposely made himself forget his past, because he couldn't handle losing his innocence, so he wanted to forget it all. The note urges Daniel to descend into the castle's Inner Sanctum and murder a man named Alexander , the baron of the castle. The note gives a final warning that a "living nightmare" is chasing him, and Daniel must escape it for as long as he can because there is no way to fight back.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a survival horror video game by Frictional Games. The game features a protagonist named Daniel exploring a dark and foreboding castle, while trying to maintain his sanity by avoiding monsters and other terrifying obstructions. The game was critically well received.

Like all good nightmares, Philip's begins with something all too real - his mother's death. The days following the funeral are characterized by nothing, save for an incessant feeling of abandonment. Until, that is, he receives a letter from a dead man. Philip's father left before he was born, taking his reasons with him. Now, here he is, opening up the door from beyond the grave. That door leads to more questions, and those questions lead to Greenland. Philip follows the clues - they're all he has left. On leaving the final signs of human civilization behind him, in search of the location mentioned in his father's ambiguous notes, Philip wonders if he's left some part of his humanity behind as well. Soon, that will be the least of his fears.
