in October 2020. Yes, it decided the best time to bring back a horror game about being trapped inside your apartment was in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic when we were all terrified and trapped inside our apartments. Top marks for topicality, I guess?
You explore Henry’s apartment in first person, a location that’s as deceptively limited and mundane as P.T.s famous corridor. Keep poking around and you’ll discover you can peer out the windows and do a little Rear Window-esque voyeurism of your neighbours. Call a phone number for a bar you see on a billboard and you’ll be rewarded with some horrible sound effects down the line.
Blasphemy? Spitting on Team Silent’s grave? Possibly, but that’s why 4 is such perfect fodder for a remake. Bloober Team’s take on Silent Hill 2 has done well critically,, but it was hamstrung by remaking a classic that many of its fans consider sacrosanct. If they’d replaced the apartment block with, say, a section where you take Pyramid Head go-karting, there would have been blood on the streets.
