    What a mess. This game shares gameplay similarities to Amnesia: Dark Descent, and starts out quite atmospheric. It reminds me of Blumhouse films, because it has low production values, but also moments of improvisational inspiration. I was prepared to give this game a 5-6 as a cheesy fun horror romp, but as the game progressed it became progressively worse, the puzzles and gameplayWhat a mess.

It reminds me of Blumhouse films, because it has low production values, but also moments of improvisational inspiration. I was prepared to give this game a 5-6 as a cheesy fun horror romp, but as the game progressed it became progressively worse, the puzzles and gameplay became increasingly frustrating, and the storyline became incoherent and mawkish. The final section of survival combat is so terrible it dropped the game another point. The ending was nonsensical melodramatic tripe about redemption.… Expand

    Remothered: Tormented Fathers is wasted potential. This is supposed to be the start of a trilogy, and hopefully the designers will learn from this mulligan and make something that has a bit more polish next time. Chris Darril's heart is in the right place, and he is proven to be a very capable game designer - the next effort just needs to be more carefully thought out and play-tested.

    My only real complaint with Remothered is just that it would have been great if it were a bit longer. It tells a great overall story, but it felt like it could have been longer. Either way, the game is a definite pickup for survival horror fans that love hide and seek style horror gameplay.

    Remothered: Tormented Fathers is a game that is almost ready to fill the classic horror experience gap, but the issues present are certainly hard to ignore. Should you be able to look past the misguiding sounds and horrendous movement mechanics, then you’ll still be able to find the essence of a quality horror story nestled deep within.
