Irvine, California-- The award winning computer entertainment title, Alone In The Dark is now available from Interplay Productions for 3DO. This spine-tingling adventure game places players in a riddle wrapped up in a mystery, and features cinematic styling and 3-D polygon graphics.
"Because of the success of the PC and CD-ROM versions of Alone In The Dark, the 3DO title is highly anticipated," said Kim Carino, director of marketing for Interplay. "The 3DO is the perfect platform for this kind of interactive entertainment with the speed and graphics that the 3DO is capable of producing."

Named 'Adventure Game Of The Year' by Computer Gaming World and the winner of the 'Golden Triad Award' from Computer Game Review, Alone In The Dark places players in the horrific and terrifying world of Jeremy Hartwood's life. Players must decide whether Jeremy was a victim of suicide or something more sinister. Around every corner is hideous, hidden monsters that come at you when you least expect them and they become life-like with cinematic zooms, pans, close-ups and scaling.

Inspired by the macabre imagination of H.P. Lovecraft, Alone In The Dark 3DO is more chilling than ever in the exciting new 3DO interactive multi-player system format. All the dreaded secrets and unspeakable evils of Derceto come to life in heightened reality and cinematic power.

In a quest for truth, players are driven to investigate the mysteries of a strange house. The action is brought to life with cinematic zooms, multiple camera angles, pans, close-ups and scaling. Ominous hand-painted backgrounds make it all the more frightening. Players will encounter hideous, hidden monsters when they least expect them in this new 3DO title.

Now available for the 3DO, Alone In The Dark utilizes the platform's revolutionary graphics system and brings game play to your fingertips with exceptional picture quality and quick, dynamic pacing. Suggested retail price for AITD 3DO will be $59.95.
