Ice-Pick Lodge's 2005 horror game Pathologic is getting a remake, assuming its Kickstarter is successful. And given that it's made $127,217 of its $250K goal in a day, I see no reason to believe that it won't be.
So what is Pathologic, you ask? It's a horror game unlike any other as the nefarious force isn't just some demonic army, mad scientist or mythical boogeyman, but rather a plague. As such, you can't kick its butt - as it doesn't have one - and it will kill people. Lots of people. But you can look for a cure.
Beyond the airborne pathogens threatening you and everyone else's very existence, there's another threat befalling the peculiar town: the military. The game will take place over the course of 12 days and throughout that time the authorities will send a doctor, an inquisitor, and eventually a military commander to assess the situation. If the powers that be deem things bad enough, they can execute a strike on the entire town in an effort to contain the virus' spread.
