This title is a psychological survival horror game that draws heavy inspiration from classics like Clock Tower and Silent Hill. You play as Rosemary Reed, a determined woman investigating the mysterious disappearance of a young girl, leading her to a creepy mansion filled with disturbing secrets. The game excels in atmosphere, with tense audio design, eerie lighting, and unsettling enemies.
The stealth-based gameplay encourages patience and caution, but some clunky mechanics and repetitive segments can break immersion, and this is the main point which made me have a bad time on this one. While I'm about to criticize this game a lot, I really liked the overall design if this title, it is what made me become interested in the game in the first place, not just the visual design but also the sound and effects, just not the animations though, they are dated and not really well made.
I really hated the mechanics, I'm a survival horror fan and I can totally enjoy titles such as Haunting Grounds and Clock Tower, but this one is not one of them. Unlike the already mentioned titles, this one has very little mechanics in comparison, to a point where it becomes boring …

Unlike the already mentioned titles, this one has very little mechanics in comparison, to a point where it becomes boring to interact with the already not-so-many existing ones. I highly recommend skipping this one, only exception is if you really like "stalker horror" titles, which, while I'm not really a fan of, I can indeed enjoy this kind of game, just not this one.
For years I've searched for a horror survival game that remotely resembled the old Clock Tower series, and I finally found it!
The classic formula still holds up: creepy oversized house, homicidal lunatics roaming the halls, and a defenseless easily panicked protagonist. All those ingredients made the Clock Tower games great, and it was utilized well in Remothered: Tormented Fathers.
The setting is my favorite aspect of the game. They really captured a sense of impending doom with a thick tension driven atmoshere. Playing with headphones are a must to experience the true essence of the labyrinth.
Gameplay is repetitive to an extent just by means of traveling back and forth throughout the house, but each step is full of tension as your stalker could be around any corner! Not to much in means of fighting or using weapons, stealth is your best choice.
All in all, if you enjoy a good game of hide and seek in a dark eerie tense environment, look no further!
Having just finishing the brilliant Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes, I found Remothered to be way too boring. It's a very slow stealth around the 1970s old Italian mansion with not much going on from the first look. I don't really like stealthy gameplay, so the games in this genre need something more to hook me up, like a story, characters, something, but it wasn't there. Internet says it is somewhat a spiritual successor to the Clock Tower series, so the fans of that might find something interesting in here, but I haven't played it yet to comment on that. Also, it's a budget title, so be ready that it looks a bit ugly and dated (doesn't matter much to me personally).
I'm a fan of the horror genre and I've found out about Remothered when googling for gems I might have missed (actually, found quite a few titles this way). It didn't get any publicity when released in 2018 except for a few okay reviews, so chances are you have missed it just like I have. There's also been a 2020 sequel, subtitled 'Broken Porcelain', that got a mostly negative reaction from those few critics, who actually reviewed …

Anyway, there's not that many straight horror games out there (especially, if you've been around long enough to have played most of the best-known titles), so you can just keep Remothered in mind in case anything I've said here clicked with you.
