7/10

While it is true that the gameplay aspect is lacking, I don't think it's an inherently negative thing. What, would you have liked some match 3 minigame? A tower defense section chapter 6? The focus of the game is the story, it's a good one, well written, well voice acted, and well paced (... Most of the time, as to be fair there had been some pacing aspects that made me furrow my brows. Again, for the most part the pacing is right). Unfortunately, there is zero replay value. But I would recommend you give it a shot during a sale or a giveaway.

A bit different approach this time!

I've played the Cat Lady and then both Downfalls. First was one hell of a ride and prequel(s) was a very nice addition to taste Rem's world even more. Lorelai is quite different. It's much calmer, slower, no gore I'd say, puzzles are less demanding, all is less challenging, less surprising. But this is very nice story too. I liked the characters and the important life problems that are described here as well. If you'd like to dive deeper in Rem's world of though life situations that's great game. If you'd like to see more madness and surprises - you will be probably disappointed. Don't get me wrong - this is still a horror game, but it's not as wild as we used to it. New engine is OK, it definitely woks better than previous engine, the resolution at last can be native for your display. :-) Sometimes we get longer break between "rooms" and maybe not necessary visual effects can be a pain for your regular graphics chip. I like the voice-over however sometimes there's no emotion in voices (example - near the end of the game when one of characters got badly injured and talks like nothing ever happened). Regarding audio tracks, I'd say it's not so memorable like in The Cat Lady, but it's still very decent. I liked the Lorelai and I'm not disappointed. It have some therapeutic and calming values. Give it a try, give some love to Rem and just get some satisfaction of what is served. Keep on rockin', Rem!

What a train ride!

An awesomely written fever dream. A dark story with constant twists and turns, great art direction and voice acting and nice riddles to spice things up. Don't miss it!

The MUSIC

I rarely review games. I haven't even finished the game yet and I had to write a review just because of the music. Usually when I'm playing a game I turn all music off, for some reason the silence feels more genuine to the atmosphere of the game, well unless it's a rhythm game, of course. However, the music of this game caught my attention right away. So much so that it's worth buying the soundtrack, imo. So far, the game is compelling. I will update this review once I finish it.

More of an interactive story than a game

Not a great in the gameplay department, the puzzles are feels simple, usually something along "walk from left to right, interact with everything you can and when you find a lock, look for a key and vice versa". But that laso means you don't spend 5min scanning screen with mouse to see what you can intereact with and I never needed to look up a guide. The story gives it solid three stars.
