Reviews
The Remains and The Residue peaked my interest but 14 minutes in i was stuck and it annoyed me because i didnt understand the first TV puzzle. I eventually figured it out with help from a Twitch viewer. It was very hard for me though. But that was just before i got into the story. When i finally found a good guide i only referred to it around 1-2 times. After i got pass points that i thought were hard i finally enjoyed the game more. The start is a confusing 5/10 but the game as a whole is an 8/10 (Here's the guide if anyone needs it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lotAdoljHl8&t=1418s )

For two dollars this is a great little psychological horror PS1 style horror game that doesn't rely on jumpscares and gore.
