Those Who Remain-CPY

Some mistakes should never happen, not when your life is complete – and yet they do. Edward had the good life, a beautiful wife and the perfect little girl, yet finds himself several whiskeys down and driving through the night of Dormont to end his secret affair – in a bid to fix his mistakes.

The game seems to be built around these puzzle-type interactions, with specific care taken to always remind me of my own fragility. Later sections include faster enemies, as seen in the trailer, but the bulk of the game will include the aspects of “safe in the light, dangerous in the dark” that underpin its traversal puzzles. My demo was scary, especially thanks to those lurking shadow figures, but we’ll have to wait until the release of the game (projected for later in this year) to see if it holds up for its entire playtime.
