Jan. 2025
The 2020 remake of the game that contributed to my obsession with survival and psychological horror years ago did not disappoint in the slightest. Seeing the refreshed artstyle was truly fascinating, I adored solving the not so easy puzzles and occasionally dying to QTE because they were actually pretty quick and unexpected. It's amazing that Mad Father still manages to be such an atmospheric, petrifying and beautiful creation in my eyes after so much time. As for the predictable and unpolished story - who cares, I had a blast experiencing it in it's refreshed form ;p

My fear of dolls got it’s own fear of dolls. I love the game, like I love most of RPG horrors, but while playing this one I was geniuely stressed because some quick time events are random as hell, and I suck at these. But overall, the story is great, as Well as each of the endings. Overall, love the game. Maria for life <3
