    WANTS TO FEEL SO MUCH LIKE AN "AAA" GAME AND SOMETIMES IT ACTUALLY DOES, BUT IN THE END, IT FAILS IN MANY THINGS...

    POSITIVES: - Cinematic Story with Multiple Twists (But some are already obvious, from the whole beginning.) - Graphic Visuals (If you do not meet the recommended specs., you still can run this game on "Ultra" graphic settings, almost without any problem.) - Gameplay    WANTS TO FEEL SO MUCH LIKE AN "AAA" GAME AND SOMETIMES IT ACTUALLY DOES, BUT IN THE END, IT FAILS IN MANY THINGS...

    POSITIVES:
    - Cinematic Story with Multiple Twists (But some are already obvious, from the whole beginning.)
    - Graphic Visuals (If you do not meet the recommended specs., you still can run this game on "Ultra" graphic settings, almost without any problem.)
    - Gameplay Features (Real survival experience, not "Run & Gun".)
    - Soundtrack
    - Open Environment (Not open-world, but wide linear, while being isolated in mansion. Brings classic "Resident Evil" feels.)

    NEGATIVES:
    - Unfinished Controls Management (The UI of controls do always swap, between keyboard buttons and controller ones, because the game cannot recognize, if you do play on keyboard or controller...)
    - Sound System (One of the worst sound systems, i ever witnessed, for example: you are in ground level, bellow playing gramophone, that is on second floor and you can still hear it, like it is next to you, even enemies alone can hear you through everything, if you make one step, bellow thick floor...)
    - Voice Acting (Sometimes the voice acting is solid and sometimes it is so bad, that you can even recognize, that each actor recorded lines on different microphone.)
    - AI (Enemies can hear you through every object, even if you are bellow them on different floor, actually when you do make real noises, that they should definitely hear, they will not even react, even if you are right behind them. Their vision is also very limited, because when you are normally meant to be spotted, they will just go right past you.)
    - Too Many Cutscenes (Every time, that you will reach some important point in the story, there is always long pre-rendered cutscene, that will do all the work for you and in the end you are left with not much to play.)
    - 1 to 2 Hours Playtime Duration (Finished the game almost in one session, without any struggle, only if it was not for the bugs and glitches few times.)

    FOR IT'S CURRENT PRICE ("STEAM"), IT IS MORE OF CINEMATIC MOVIE EXPERIENCE, THAN STANDALONE GAME ITSELF. SIMPLY: WAIT FOR THE PRICE TO DROP.    … Expand

    Shoutout to games that have creepy naked men trying to kill you. Gotta be one of my favorite genres.

    Remothered is a scary and confident debut from a future auteur.

    Remothered: Tormented Fathers is a tribute to horror literature and cinema. Its astounding atmosphere and its well-written scenario aren’t enough to hide its poor graphics and some dated game mechanics.

    Despite its skillfully achieved cinematic feel Remothered is not an interactive movie but a full-blooded survival horror – suspenseful, well-written and worth recommending if you’re a fan of the genre. [04/2018, p.57]
