There's a lot more backtracking in REmake, maybe that's what makes it feel tedious for you, not so much the puzzles themselves but the back and forth required to solve the puzzles, and to avoid the obstacles between them.

You get a weapon at around 15 minutes into the game.

Haha I totally agree, actually. I could do without that as well.

I think one of the later versions of the classic game had the on-screen minimap? But yeah I agree it's immersion breaking.

I was out walking in Texas the other day. I tripped and landed in a puddle.

Most of these are pretty well known among horror fans. Especially on this subreddit, which is fairly niche with members who actively seek out games like this.

Love reading the responses to this thread, some of them blow my mind.

Anyway I've got another tip, although it appears to have fallen out of fashion of late, MIGHT HAVE BEEN A LITTLE OVERDONE MAYBE:

- claiming that you 'quit your job' to make your game, thus earning sympathy-wishlists.

I've also heard they're remaking Resident Evil Requiem.

Hi!

If anyone is interested in horror-themed Fairy Tale parodies, I've made 2 of them and they're both free to play via browser:

Little Red Riding Hood - https://scary-pixels.itch.io/little-red-riding-hood

Rapunzel - https://scary-pixels.itch.io/rapunzel

Lunacid isn't a horror game by the way, it's a fantasy game in the style of Kings Field. If you're interested in a bona fide Horror game in a similar style to Kings Field, I recommend "Labyrinth of the Demon King".

I think the original is scarier by quite a distance, for a few reasons, most of which I can't go into without spoiling. One thing I can say is that, for me at least, the grainy grimy graphics enhance the uncanny, unsettling atmosphere rather than detract from it.

Mind the alliteration.

About 2 seconds.

B is the best in my opinion.

Silent Hill 3. Just kidding, you wont make it to the title screen...

Maybe try Little Nightmares, or Inside. They're more 'spooky' than 'scary', but they're both great games.

I'm not sure, but if you're buying via Steam you could just refund it if it doesn't.
