Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, an indirect sequel to the horror game

Developed by
Frictional Games and
thechineseroom, creators of
Dear Esther, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs is set in 1899 and follows the "wealthy industrialist" Oswald Mandus, who has returned home from "a disastrous expedition to Mexico, which has ended in tragedy".
