Amnesia: Helena

Description
After returning home from France, Ludwig finds his home empty.

The warm welcome he expects upon arrival is instead replaced with a cold silence echoing in the great halls. Where has everyone vanished to? What horrors occurred during his brief absence?

But, most importantly, what happened to Helena?

Estimated playtime is 6 to 7 hours. Hints are available in the pdf located in the main mod folder.

Changelog Note
Thank you for being patient with all these changes and updates. As you may know, Steam has ended support for Windows 7 and I currently cannot afford an upgrade at this time. So I made the decision to release Helena as complete as it could be with the intention of updating until Steam access is lost.

It's especially egregious since there's constant repeating dialogue and characters talking on top of each other. Let your work speak for itself, reinforce the loneliness of the player character, and use voices sparingly to really highlight the fact that we're alone, far from help, and at the total mercy of the dark forces surrounding us. I was practically telling everyone to shut up out loud at my computer with how obnoxious it became.

Thank you for your work nonetheless, I realize I'm a bit of an outlier with my criticisms, but it wore me down and pulled me out of the experience more times than not. I hope you continue to make more content in the future, because the strong elements are particularly good.

The character constantly talking to himself ruins a lot of the mood. It'd be considerably more atmospheric with silence, rather than having the game tell me to be afraid.

Lovely game, Olivia)

@Roxcuttle I believe from the Steam library, you can right click on the game and select Browse Folder or some similar option, and once inside the game folder, there should be one labeled as custom_stories.

Where can I find the mod folder, my custom story folder is empty due to the nature of subscribing in Steam Cloud. BTW by far one of the greatest custo stories I've played and I am still far from finishing this story.

The password for the collectibles guide is wrong, or I'm putting it in wrong... please help!

@Silly Willy For Promise, all you need is to find most of Helena's notes, complete
the nightmare sections quickly, and not die too many times. If you've already completed the game, you should have the code to open the endings walkthrough guide for more detail.

hey I need some help on how to get the promise ending. ive collected all the notes and letters but no mater where i look I cant seem to find the "missing document that makes me get this ending I absolutely adore this mod and have played through it twice but i really want to see this ending because it sounds more satisfying than the resurrection ending

Ok, I managed to mak the combining the drill problem work by reinstalling the CS and replaying it.

Great custom story but I was not able to combine the drill bits into a drill. Is this a bug? No matter what I did and in which order iI combined the drill bits in the drill was never built in the inventory and I could not progress any further. Anyone else had this issue?
