After a long fall, you realize you’re stuck underground and have no food so you start to look around. You take a plane and charter a boat that dumps you out in what seems to be the middle of nowhere, and nearly freezing to death find the opening to some kind of underground that you have to smash your way into as it’s frozen shut. It would have been much simpler for you to do just that, but then there wouldn’t be much of a game or story would there? The papers talk of something dark and terrible in the ground in Greenland and beg for you to destroy the papers and forget all about it. The game starts off with a brief dialogue of our lead character, explaining of your mother’s death and your inheritance of some of your father’s papers through a safety deposit box in a bank you’ve never heard of before. Yes, for some reason the box art on the game case has Overture last, but it’s the first one, I swear! This is the first time I’ve sat down with any of the games in the series, so let’s see how they go from one to the next. Two of these games have been reviewed by us before, and Penumbra Black Plague was nominated for last year’s Best Horror and Best First Person categories here at DieHard GameFAN. Penumbra Collection takes the previously published episodic games Penumbra Overture, Penumbra Black Plague and the expansion Penumbra Requiem and bundles them up conveniently for download or in a nice shiny case.
