Silent Hill 4: The Room

Silent Hill 4: The Room
The game retains the dark, disturbing soul that is the unsettling center of the Silent Hill experience.

Silent
Hill is a town where pure evil permeates the air and the soil and
eventually consumes the people. It's a soothing vacation spot that
masks demon-worshipping cults and dark purpose. Each of the previous
titles in the Silent Hill series of horror games has either outright
taken place in the titular small town or has gradually been pulled
there through some terrible inertia. Silent Hill 4: The Room breaks
this trend, because it takes place in the neighboring city of South
Ashfield and centers mainly on an ill-fated apartment building, a
cursed apartment, and the man who lives in it. That's not the only
series tenet the game breaks. Silent Hill 4 pairs third-person and new
first-person gameplay with an emphasis on combat and item management.
The resultant hybrid has some flaws, but The Room retains the dark,
disturbing soul that is the unsettling center of the Silent Hill
experience.

The unfortunate hero of Silent Hill 4 is Henry
Townshend, a man living what used to be a content life in the city of
South Ashfield. One night, Henry begins to experience intense,
recurring nightmares and terrible headaches concurrent with his
apartment apparently becoming cursed. His phone is dead, his neighbors
can't hear him when he calls, his windows are sealed shut by a
mysterious force, and his door is blocked as well, albeit by a
not-so-mysterious force. Thick chains thoroughly web the only exit,
with an important additional detail: They're bolted to the inside of
his apartment. Scrawled in red on the door's interior is a note that
only says, "Don't go out!! Walter." While exploring the confines of his
single-bedroom apartment to fuel his confusion and despair, he
discovers a ragged, man-sized hole in his bathroom wall. Faced with a
dearth of other options, Henry gathers his courage and crawls through
the strange portal, hoping to find an escape route. What he finds
instead will lead him on a convoluted journey that will reveal the
sordid past of his apartment--Room 302--as well as the identity of
Walter, the man responsible for sealing Henry's room.
