## About Resident Evil

A remastered version of the 1996 survival horror landmark, this 2015 release drops players into the oppressive Spencer Mansion where they must solve environmental puzzles while managing limited resources and a restrictive inventory system. The fixed-camera perspective, which reviewers highlight as heightening tension throughout the mansion's claustrophobic corridors, combines with save-system pressure to create a deliberately challenging experience. Players describe the atmosphere as immersive and unsettling, with the fixed-camera angles and original control scheme creating a tense, methodical rhythm. Released at $19.99, the game runs verified on Steam Deck and holds a 91% positive rating from over 12,000 Steam reviews.
