I can’t stop thinking about Silent Hill f. Konami’s latest entry in the long-running survival horror franchise, this time developed by NeoBards Entertainment, is easily the most fascinating game I’ve played all year. From its disturbing lore and ties to Japanese mythology, to its weirdly unnerving cast of characters, each run through the foggy streets of rural Ebisugaoka unveils major revelations about the town and its inhabitants.
For this article, I have attempted to keep spoilers for Silent Hill f to a minimum.

Consider this a light spoiler warning if you have even the slightest interest in Silent Hill f.
