this game embedded itself into my brain a decade ago and is probably the origin of why i'm now deeply abnormal about insane father figures.

Mad Father is what I would describe to be one of the staples of 2D anime horror RPGMaker games along with Ib and The Witch's House for some examples. Discovering the dark family secrets in this game kept it interesting whilst avoiding death and various game overs.

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
