I didn’t play it when it came out so it’s not carried by nostalgia (like the old Resident Evil games which have also aged badly but I still do enjoy). Will give the second one a go someday. If it’s anything like the RE remakes I’ll probably enjoy it.
You might enjoy Bramble: The Mountain King then. It’s basically a walking simulator with a good (and spooky) atmosphere and a couple of simple puzzles sprinkled in.
I finished this not long ago on my steam deck. The story was engaging but the gameplay was a bit of a slog. Had to push myself to finish it but was probably worth it in the end.
Thomas was alone OST is superb.
