Penumbra: Requiem

Requiem is the third and the last production in the horror adventure game series of Peneumbra. It is an expansion for Black Plague, the second installment in the Peneumbra cycle and requires it to be installed in order to work. Just like last time, we assume the role of Philip and dive even deeper into a bizarre and dark world created by the developers of Frictional Games. We have to explore an abandoned research complex located in Greenland yet again, meeting some reappearing characters from the previous episodes. This time around, the situation changed, though, which forces us to ponder on whether we can still trust our old friends. The main purpose of Requiem is to conclude all of the unresolved themes from the last game.

In Penumbra: Requiem, the atmosphere is even more depressing, and the protagonist is starting to have problems with telling reality from delusion. Correctly assessing the situation is therefore key to success. Of course, as befits an adventure game, we have to solve numerous puzzles before we can see the final ending.
