And to my knowledge, it’s considered a bit of a cult classic.
If you were a fan of the OG, there’s no doubt you’ll like it.

You might need to light fireworks, their explosions giving you temporary respite.
There’s even weird anglerfish/slug hybrids that can help you traverse dimly lit spots.
I wish that attitude had been tossed in the bin and ‘remastered’ instead, honestly.
