I opted to use mostly the stylus even though holding the 3DS with one hand caused a bit of cramping during my playtime, as buttons just didn’t provide the precision needed. While wandering through these repetitive hallways, you’ll be tasked with using either the ABXY buttons or the stylus to aim your guns and melee weapons. They could have called this Dementium: Spooky Hallways or Dementia: Have I Been Here Before? and they wouldn’t have been wrong. If anything Dementium Remastered is like a combination of all the bad parts of the Silent Hill games with repetitive enemies, copy pasted environments, and dull combat, only way worse. Prior to now I had never played the original games, but I figured if it was good enough to get a remaster, surely I’d like it?įirst things first, if you were hoping this would fill the hole in your heart that is Silent Hills, it won’t. Konami turned them down and thus we ended up with Dementium: The Ward on the DS instead, which performed well enough to warrant a sequel. Dementium was originally pitched by Renegade Kid to Konami as a proof of concept for a Silent Hill game on the Nintendo DS.
