Alan Wake's American Nightmare is a 2012 sequel/spinoff to Remedy Entertainment's Alan Wake. American Nightmare takes place in Night Springs, Arizona, a construct based on Alan's reinterpretation of a screenplay he wrote for the fictional television anthology series Night Springs, where Alan tries to write a way out of the Dark Place. Along the way, he is waylaid by Taken controlled by his evil doppelganger, Mr. Scratch.
As in Alan Wake, the title character can carry one one-handed weapon, one two-handed weapon, an Orion flare gun, and a supply of flares and flashbang grenades. Ammunition is abstracted into a generic pickup for each type of weapon.
The title was released as download-only for the Xbox 360 and PC in 2012. A sequel, Alan Wake 2, was released in 2023.
The following weapons appear in the video game Alan Wake's American Nightmare:

Nailgun
The first primary weapon the player is likely to find, the nailgun is fully-automatic and loads a 25 round strip, but its full-auto fire is slower than the handgun's rapid fire. Alan Wake can carry 75 extra rounds.

Remington Model 7 CDL
