    P.T. Remake is an Unreal 4 remake of a Playstation psychological horror game that was a playable-teaser for Silent Hill. This is a very repetitive game as you explore the same hallway over and over with new clues and puzzles each time.

    Conclusion:
    P.T. Remake ran really well with Proton GE (Glorious Egg Roll fork) on my GeForce GTX 1060. I didn't have any issues with launching or playing the game. Unfortunately there is no save funciton, so you loose all progress if you quit before finishing.
