Title: Alone in the Dark Released: Unreleased Genre: 3-D Adventure Developer: I-Motion/Interplay Publisher: None % Complete: Unknown

Capcom's Resident Evil has been credited with the invention of the "Survival Horror" gaming concept, but the genre's roots can be traced back several years earlier to the PC's Alone in the Dark series. Both games are eerily similar, right down to the creepy mansion, murderous monsters, limited camera angles, and polygonal models. The 32x was scheduled to receive a port of the PC original, a processing task it could have probably handled easily due to the game's simple 3-D graphics and unpolished look. Unfortunately, Alone in the Dark fell victim to the curse of the canceled 32x game, leaving the little add-on without a single horror game in its library (though Cosmic Carnage and Motocross Championship come close.) Both Alone in the Dark and its sequel Alone in the Dark 2: One-Eyed Jack's Revenge were released for the 3DO and are probably comparable to what the 32x could have accomplished.
