Spooky horror Sylvio gets fancy Remastered update

Sylvio is a lovely horror game with a great soundtrack and sound design, scratchy Silent Hill-style looks, and a palpable atmosphere largely dependent on those three things. You're a ghost hunter, and what that involves here is listening out for Electronic Voice Phenomena, analysing that phenomena with your handy tape recorder and notepad, and occasionally shooting detritus at giant balls of ghostly energy.

Here's a trailer:

Tom loves exploring in games, whether it’s going the wrong way in a platformer or burgling an apartment in Deus Ex. His favourite game worlds—Stalker, Dark Souls, Thief—have an atmosphere you could wallop with a blackjack. He enjoys horror, adventure, puzzle games and RPGs, and played the Japanese version of Final Fantasy VIII with a translated script he printed off from the internet. Tom has been writing about free games for PC Gamer since 2012. If he were packing for a desert island, he’d take his giant Columbo boxset and a laptop stuffed with PuzzleScript games.
