Game modes:Single player
Story:Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is the seventh installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a stand-alone reimagining of the original Silent Hill video game. Once again, you will cast Harry Mason searching across the haunted town for his missing daughter Cheryl. Through his exploration, Harry will come across objects and recordings that tell some of the history of Silent Hill. New to the series are a depiction of Silent Hill's demonic alter-dimension as a world of ice, and the removal of weapons from the game: when the monsters come out, Harry must literally run for his life. Between scenes, the game will cut to a psychiatrist's office, who asks personal questions about Harry and his past experiences. The game will then alter itself based on the player's responses, changing characters and lines of dialog to something intended to be more personally uncomfortable.Show more

Not a too scary game, but definitively is an interesting game by it's story with a great plot twist and containing one of the most unique gameplay features as it is the psychological profile. We really need a re-release of the game as it is not available anywhere to buy and second-hand copies are extreamly overpriced almost making it an obscure game or a "hidden gem"
I kept playing this silent Hill game on my psp. finishing it the first time at a hotel that was far up in the woods. It was the few silent hill games I owned to manage to truly understood that it was not like the other silent hill games. It had its own thing going on of the first story that was ever told of the first game and gave me a pleasant surprise at what it was. It would be night to officially own it on GoG, as my psp is officially busted since I gave it to a sibling and suddenly did nothing with it.

For me simply the best Silent Hill outside of Team Silent. In addition to being a very good replay of the first Silent Hill, it is also a very interesting game to play at least once in your life but which unfortunately is increasingly difficult to have because it is not available on any platform and the Physical copies of the game are quite expensive.

I played this game years ago on PSP. Despite it doesn't have combat mechanics in this game but the story and gameplay are successfully make me submerge into the game. I remembered when I was spend hours a day just playing this game, trying to solve the mystery and following story that pretty much interesting to me. It has different flavor to another silent hill game because it's missing the combat mechanics but still remain the atmosphere of silent hill series. I'd liked to buy and own this copy of the game legally and play this game again on pc since buying console game from PS2 or Wii are nearly impossible and if I found it online it's pretty damn expensive.
I played it on the Nintendo Wii and after so many years I want to be able to play it digitally on the computer. It gives a nice re imagining to the first game and is a nice little change.
Najlepszy Silent od czasu trójki. Jak bodajże sami autorzy określili tę grę - "twórcze przetworzenie idei Silent Hilla". I nie kończy się ono jedynie na zastąpieniu ognia lodem. Dostajemy skromną, ale niezwykle emocjonalną opowieść psychologiczną (coś na poziomie solidnego, dojrzałego anime) z chwytającym za serce zakończeniem. Zdecydowanie warto.
"THIS HAS SPOILERS" READ WITH CAUTION. This is the first Silent Hill game that decided to remove violence and focus more on the story/psychological aspects. Its not a remake, but a reimagining of the first game and to be honest, I actually loved it, yes I will admit the "Chase Scenes" were the most convoluted, confusing and most annoying sequences in the game still Silent Hill Shattered Memories holds a special place in my heart. Though I feel like everyone who has played it has their own personal problems, with Chase Scenes where you'd think it would be like 2 or 3. No, Its the entire god damn game. Its the first walking simulator game I've played, where its always the same "Point A to B" but in where other games fails, Silent Hill Shattered Memories, succeeds, all thanks to its original and fascinating story. SH1 was all about looking for Cheryl after a car crash in the abandoned town of Silent Hill, filled with nightmarish monsters. There's no context on what happened to the town and its folks, but just a cult trying to revive a god. Depending of the endings, one of the worse ones explains how Harry died in the car crash making the entire game a dream of a dying man. Silent Hill Shattered Memories gets rid of the cult story, but keeps that same ending, where Harry has to look for her missing daughter after the car crash in a blizzard storm. Which finally makes sense why no one is around. (There's a blizzard.) In Between sequences, you talk to Kaufmann the Psychologist and every interactions you make with him changes the way that Harry Interacts/see with other characters. Now you'd think the person talking to Kaufmann would be Harry, but instead its Cheryl 18 years after the crash still denying her Father's death, where she saw him as a great man. but all of your Interactions will show the "Real Harry Mason" whether he was a great father, an alcoholic, an unfaithful husband, or a lazy writer, all on the verge of divorce. That game is amazing, 7/10.
Why Silent Hill: Shattered Memories Deserves to Be on GOG and Why It’s an Amazing Game Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is one of the most unique and emotionally resonant entries in the Silent Hill series, offering a psychological reimagining of the original 1999 classic. Released in 2009 for the Wii, and later for PSP and PS2, this game stood out by focusing less on combat and more on atmosphere, storytelling, and psychological horror — making it a true standout in survival horror history. What makes Shattered Memories so amazing is how it tailors the horror experience to the player. From the very beginning, you’re psychologically profiled through questions in therapy sessions, and the game adapts to your responses — from character designs to dialogue, environments, and even how scenes play out. It becomes your Silent Hill experience, which was revolutionary for the genre at the time and still rarely seen in modern horror games. The game also replaces traditional combat with pure evasion — increasing the tension and helplessness. This decision emphasized atmosphere and psychological storytelling over action, making every chase and puzzle feel more intense and grounded. Combined with a hauntingly beautiful score by Akira Yamaoka and a touching, twist-filled narrative, Shattered Memories delivers a horror experience that’s as emotional as it is eerie. Bringing Silent Hill: Shattered Memories to GOG would ensure this underappreciated gem is preserved and accessible to a new generation of players. Its innovative mechanics, brilliant storytelling, and unique approach to horror absolutely earn it a place on the platform — and in the pantheon of psychological horror classics.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
