    Even at discount it's not worth your money. The story is cringefest, gameplay is terrible mess from like 2 generations before. And the graphics and technical quality is laughable ( but it will make you want to tear your eyes out). price in my country is 35 $ , it was on sale for 12 $. I would even go as far as calling it a scam LUL...Yeah, It's that bad.

    I am not sure why this is being hailed as a true OG Survival Horror. It's nothing like RE or SH. It's more of a walking simulator/Adventure game. And a buggy , janky one at that.
    There is no option to resist or attach, leaving you with 2 option sneak away or hide. I don't find that scary. Your scared when your armed and you still run away, because you arent sure you are well equipped

    Game like this a the Death of the traditional Survival horror,. There is some great atmosphere here and an interesting story, but when your only mechanics is sneaking , picking stuff up and hiding, its a recipe for boredom. If you have a IQ higher than 75 there's just no stimulation, unless bumps in the night and dark areas is all it takes to interest you.

    I’m a big survival horror fan but this games controls and hide and seek gameplay got old fast. Hope the next one is better

    I was really excited to play this game: I love horror, and it sets up a decent mystery, so I was ready.

    Then the stalking started. And to make a long and aggravating story short, I spent TWO HOURS unsuccessfully trying to get past the stalker. Eventually I had to stop because I just had a filling replaced and I was worried it would pop out from all the TEETH-GRINDING I was doing.

    The reason why this was so difficult is because the sound-effects were not what they should have been. I KNEW going into this game that it was a "avoid the stalker" game. I assumed that, like many stalker/evasion based games, that I would be avoiding the stalker based on audio cues. And it is NIGH IMPOSSIBLE to tell when the stalker is near you or not. Oh, you get a creepy tone, and he talks- but he COULD be right below you on the next floor, OR he could be right around the corner. You have no way of knowing until the fricker is right on top of you.

    I'm not a stickler about sound-effects, or graphics, or whatever in a game as a general rule; but if you are making a game where your primary weapon is your ability to hear where your enemy is, it's not forgivable to me when you've done the sound-effects so poorly that I CAN'T DO THAT.

    Beyond that, I can't critique the rest of the game. Y'know, because I can't GET to it.

    This game costs $10 more on consoles than it does on PC and offers no new content to justify the difference in price. Nice try...

    This was SUCH a let down. Didn't complete the game. Hardly started it, actually.

    Absolutely dreadful. The gameplay, the "stealth" system, the repetitive music ( there are NO soundtracks ), clunky movements, old graphics, bad animations, generic glitches, brief like a fart....and the plot is mediocre at most.

    Remothered: Tormented Fathers is a short yet sweet horror game that mixes stealthy gameplay with an incredibly creepy story. There are plenty of twists and turns that won't leave you disappointed. You can happen upon some terrifying moments depending on how you play, which makes you want to see more. This is meant to be the first game in a trilogy, and with what I've seen here, I'm excited to learn more about this world.

    Gripping Giallo with a few technical flaws and minor gameplay weaknesses in the last third.

    It actually does not add or detract from the good that the title had to offer on computers.
