Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a complete re-imagining of the original Silent Hill game. The original Silent Hill took the formula for survival horror games and focused on physiological horror. There was a huge emphasis on story, characters, and symbolism, and less on action and cheap scares.
