“It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Frictional, the
game company. Not only do they write great games, they’ve open
sourced their game engine so the rest of the world can learn from
it.

“Frictional’s physics-based engine is different than most any
other gameplay in that the “bump and acquire” method of doing
things isn’t used. During the game, you must grasp, inspect, move
or throw items in the field in order to survive.

“And in their newest release, Amnesia…survival is the name of
the game.”
