Alone in the Dark - The New Nightmare (Gameboy Color) game description

Edward Carnby, private eye of the paranormal, is back. His best friend, Charles Fiske, has been found dead near Shadow Island--a mysterious island near Maine. It is his duty to take up the investigation and find out the secrets of Shadow Island. The game takes place in the surrounding grounds of a gloomy mansion.

The game tries to import most of the gameplay mechanics of its console/Windows brother: most time is spent exploring the game world (screens with switching camera perspectives), collecting items and using them to solve puzzles.

The player is given the option of choosing which of the two protagonists they play as. Carnby's side of the plot is based mainly on fighting the monsters by physical means, particularly with his trusty double barreled revolver; while Aline's is more centered on puzzles. The two occasionally meet up, and the main areas of plot intersect.
