The game takes place in this massive, creepy house with tons of rooms, secret passages, and hidden areas to explore. You'll need to scavenge for items like keys, tools, and other stuff to help you progress and eventually escape. But, be careful, as Granny is always lurking, waiting to pounce and catch you!
The Remote is one of the items you'll find, and it's actually really useful for distracting Granny or activating certain objects in the environment. It's not a super powerful item, but it can definitely help you in sticky situations. Just be sure to use it wisely, as it can also attract Granny's attention if you're not careful!
