After success and disappointment with the horror franchise Remothered, Chris Darril is back with Bye Sweet Carole.
2018 came out Remothered: Tormented Fathers, a survival horror that had managed to find its audience without achieving phenomenal success. Unfortunately, the sequel, Remothered: Broken Porcelain, was extremely disappointing. But its creator, Chris Darril, hasn’t given up. So here he is again appalled with Bye, sweet Carolhis brand new game.
Bye Sweet Carole, a promising horror game
In 2022, the Italian game designer Chris Darril had already teased a certain Bye Sweet Caroll. He then presented it as “an interactive traditional animated fairy tale”in the form of “Survival Horror”. The project is now dated 2024 without further details. The man who founded the project also serves as a screenwriter and director there and works with the developers of his Little Sewing Machine studio. Aside from a few images, the title published by Just For Games remains shrouded in mystery. He only offers us a teaser of his synopsis on the game’s official website.
For his new project, the author of the horror series reburied has chosen an artistic direction inspired by the greatest animated films. Stunning graphics support the incredible adventures of main character Lana Benton as she searches for the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of Carole Simmons.

Bye Sweet Carole is slated for 2024 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch.
A spiritual successor to American McGee’s Alice?
Not much is known about this mysterious Bye Sweet Carole, but the universe is reminiscent of cartoons like Disney’s. Just For Games does not hide it through its communications. But, more personal speculation, the game’s universe might well be inspired Alice in Wonderland. The visual atmosphere has something to do with it, but it’s mainly certain details that alarm us. First, the rabbit emoji used in the tweet. We also find the animal in the “O” of “Carole” on the title of the game: A rabbit with a jacket who is always late, does that mean something to you? By the way, the name alone makes one think of Lewis Carroll, the author of the book. Finally, on the “B” of “Bye” we note the presence of a top hat reminiscent of that of the Mad Hatter.
So you could imagine a universe with that Alice in Wonderland. But since the game is awful, this universe could well turn into a nightmare. A bit like what American McGee did with Alice: Madness Returns and its predecessor. The third opus was finally buried by EA. Could Bye Sweet Carole be the long-awaited spiritual successor? Or are we just really bad at iGamesNews theories? Tell us what you think in the comments section!
