Remnant Records is a horror investigation game for 1 to 4 players. Explore places haunted by the dead, survive elaborate and unique ghosts and find out what happened to them through thousands of generated stories.
The core gameplay loop challenges players to investigate haunted locations, searching for clues such as journal entries and personal items that provide insight into the resident ghost's former life. This investigative aspect sets the experience apart from traditional ghost-hunting games, as players must understand the ghost's history to successfully exorcise it, adding depth and complexity to the gameplay.
The game features four distinct ghost designs, each with specialized behaviors and abilities that require different strategies to overcome. For example, the "Runner" ghost aggressively pursues players, forcing them to move carefully and remain silent, while the "Mannequin" utilizes the environment's lighting and shadows to ambush unsuspecting players. This variety ensures that each encounter feels fresh, requiring players to adapt their approach accordingly.
Remnant Records supports cooperative gameplay for up to four players, with each participant choosing from one of four distinct character classes, such as the Bodyguard or the Medium. These classes offer unique abilities and equipment that complement each other, encouraging teamwork and strategic coordination as players leverage their collective strengths to exorcise the ghost.
The process of exorcising a ghost involves carefully arranging collected items on a special board in a specific pattern dictated by the ghost's attributes. Failure to properly configure the ritual can result in disastrous consequences, adding tension and urgency to the proceedings. The exorcism ritual represents a satisfying culmination of the investigative process, requiring precise execution from the players.
The game employs procedural generation techniques, ensuring that the layout of haunted locations, the placement of clues and items, and the specific ghost type are all randomized, preventing the gameplay from becoming overly repetitive. Additionally, the progression system allows players to unlock new ghost types, difficulty modifiers, and special conditions that further alter the gameplay experience, encouraging exploration and mastery of the diverse mechanics.
