Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a survival horror video game developed by Climax Studios and published by Konami Digital Entertainment for the Wii in December 2009. It was ported to the PlayStation 2 and the PlayStation Portable platforms, and these versions were released in January 2010. The game is the seventh installment in the Silent Hill video game series and a reimagining of the first installment. Shattered Memories retains the premise of the original game—Harry Mason’s quest to find his missing daughter in the fictitious American town of Silent Hill—but is set in a different fictional universe, has a different plot, and altered characters, alongside new ones. Five endings are available. Gameplay takes place in two parts: a framing, first-person psychotherapy session with an unidentified patient, and an over-the-shoulder perspective of Harry’s journey through Silent Hill, which is periodically interrupted by the occurrence of a shift to an alternate dimension.
