Evaluation

Mad Father originally launched on Steam on September 22, 2016. On November 5, 2020, the developer sen released a substantial remake of the game as a free update, adding overhauled graphics, new scenes, new maps, gamepad support, and an entirely new second playthrough called "Blood Mode" with additional story content. This remake represents the most complete and current version of the game. Since the remake shipped in November 2020, post-launch updates have been limited to bug fixes and minor quality-of-life patches, with the last notable patch being a February 2, 2023 bug fix. The most recent developer communication (August 15, 2024) was a news post about a different game entirely — an HD remaster of Misao, another title by developer sen — with only a passing mention of Mad Father as part of a bundle deal. There are no unreleased DLC items listed on the store, no roadmap or announcement of upcoming content, and no developer statements indicating further development is planned for Mad Father. The game launched as a self-contained horror adventure and its remake delivered a definitive, complete package. The store description accurately reflects the current full feature set of the remake with no mention of planned additions.

About this game


In this horror adventure game, play as 11-year-old girl Aya Drevis and uncover the secrets of a bizarre incident that befalls the Drevis residence, where maniacal experiments are conducted night after night.
To arrive at the truth, you'll need to make use of chainsaws, knives, hammers, even bottles of eyeballs to explore every inch of the terrifyingly mad mansion.
This is a remade version of the original Mad Father. In addition to updates such as a total revamping of the in-game graphics, this remake adds brand new scenes and Blood Mode: a new second playthrough which alters the story.
