- Xbox 360
On the face of it, the premise of I Am Alive is extremely enticing: a post-apocalyptic survival horror which focuses on the harsh realities of the human psyche after a cataclysmic ‘Event’ has decimated the planet. Imagine ‘The Road’ as a video game and you’re not far off. Right from the start, the game keeps things simple. This is what Armageddon would really be like. There are no aliens; no...

Eight years is a long time, especially in the gaming industry. A development cycle spanning this long for a game has two major effects: it raises the expectations of potential players, and costs a lot of money. Darkworks began working on I Am Alive in 2003 (later to be finished by Ubisoft Shangai (between 2008-2011), which suffered a development that saw eight years and two studios working o...
