Penumbra Black Plague Just Got An Update

One of the reasons that make me despise most horror movies released these days is their predictibility, most of them following a pattern that makes surprises turn into "I expected that", and scenes that should scare you, nothing more than a butcher's dream. Well, at least we have some interesting horror games, and since there's more likely for them to be enjoyable and send chills down your spine, I choose to tell you about Paradox Interactive's Penumbra...

Penumbra

Unfortunately, I won't review this excellent game for you, because this has been done by many others already, but I will tell you about the latest update Penumbra: Black Plague just received.

Released back in February, the horror adventure title I just mentioned was patched to include alternate solutions to puzzles, thus increasing the value of in-game experience and, of course, the re-playability factor, a very important thing with adventure games.

Penumbra: Black Plague is priced at $19.99, and features a cutting-edge engine, highly interactive environments, challenging puzzles and, of coursem an interesting storyline.
