Alone in the Dark,
the original game in the series, was developed by Infogrames and released for PC in 1992. It was one of the first two games to use polygonal characters over pre-rendered backgrounds. Guinness World Records awarded it the record of "First Ever 3D Survival Horror Game" in the Guinness World Records: Gamer's Edition 2008 edition. Krisalis made a port for 3DO in 1994 that was released by Interplay.

Jack in the Dark
is a small game made during Alone in the Dark 2 production. It was used as a promotional game distributed at Christmas 1993 (just before Alone in the Dark 2 release). The game was on a single floppy in a golden wrapping featuring a Jack-in-the-box illustration on the top. It is a short adventure featuring the young child race Saunders. During Halloween, she enters a small toy store after dark and gets locked in it. There, the toys are alive, and Grace must save Santa Claus from an evil Jack-in-the-box. Jack in the Dark is an adventure game that focuses purely on puzzles and has no combat. Later CD versions of both Alone in the Dark and Alone in the Dark 2 came packaged with Jack in the Dark.

Alone in the Dark 2,
developed by Infogrames and released for PC in 1993, was a drastic departure from the original game, being more action-oriented than its predecessor, with a much greater emphasis on firearms and shootouts, and resulting in more difficult combat. It was ported to 3DO by Krisalis and released by Interplay. An enhanced port under the name of Alone in the Dark: Jack is Back was developed by Infogrames and released in 1996 for Sega Saturn and PlayStation. It was known in the US as Alone in the Dark: One-Eyed Jack's Revenge. Both versions were also released in Japan under the original name of Alone in the Dark 2.

Alone in the Dark 3
was the final game in the original trilogy and the last game to utilize the same engine and characters as the original game. Released for PC in 1994, Alone in the Dark 3 attempts to return to the gameplay style of the original game. A version of Alone in the Dark 3 for Windows 95 under the name of Alone in the Dark: Ghosts in Town was released by Infogrames in 1996.
