Adventure Mode isn't just about subtractions either it also introduces a number of bonus puzzles designed to boost the sense of adventure and deliver an experience closer to a "true Lovecraftian mystery adventure novel." Like that post-launch addition, it removes all life-threatening encounters with monster, but also jettisons the harrowing sounds and visual effects that would ordinarily impact Tasi's fear levels.Īdditionally, Rebirth's environments - often incredibly dark in the original version, requiring a frequently fleeting light source to penetrate - have all been lit "to a point where you won't have the same feeling of claustrophobia and trepidation, allowing you to explore freely without worrying about monsters or Tasi's mental state."įrictional says that while Amensia: Rebirth's serious themes and unnerving ambience are retained, "the new mode feels a lot more like an Indiana Jones type of adventure in places where it would otherwise be more of a horror experience". Notably, Adventure Mode goes considerably further than the broadly similar Safe Mode that Frictional introduced to sci-fi horror SOMA back in 2017.
