* AntiFrustrationFeatures: The Steam/Switch remake features several to alleviate complaints about the original:
** The "Promise of Reunion" ending, which was an infamous GuideDangIt in the original game, is now much easier to achieve, as friendship with Garry is no longer a requirement for the ending. The player can still raise their bond with Garry by talking to and interacting with him, but this has no effect for any of the remake's endings.
** The True Exhibit is now unlocked after completing the game once, meaning the player no longer needs to trek through the Bonus Dungeon to unlock it. As a result, the receptionist at the front desk will also tell you how to find the Bonus Dungeon, making the existance of the New Game Plus mode much more obvious.
** Several of the more difficult puzzles from the original have been reworked or removed outright. For example, the Liar's Room now features a numeric grid with letters and numbers, making the hints much easier to understand, and the Guertena self portrait in the Abyssal Depths area now only has six pieces instead of nine.

** If Ib gives a petal of her rose to the clock painting in the Gray area, Garry will comment on it when checking the clock painting in the Brown area.
** Normally when entering the dark room in the Orange area, Garry will attempt to use his lighter to see, only to find it's run out of oil, and he'll prevent Ib from going back into the room until she finds the candle painting. If the player instead obtains the candle painting ''then'' enters the dark room, Garry will try using his lighter, then tells Ib to instead use the painting to see without forcing her to leave the room.

** Some of the endings can be a little hard to figure out unless you already know the conditions to get them. In particular, the best and worst endings both take Ib's bond with Garry and/or Mary into account, which you are never informed of, nor is there any indication of how you raise friendship with them to begin with.
Added DiffLines:
** Some of the artworks for the true exhibit can be difficult to find, since several of them require backtracking to areas with Garry so Ib can learn their titles. This being a very linear story-heavy game, there is otherwise little to no reason to backtrack, so you wouldn't think to do this. Special mention goes to the Violet area (since it only counts if ''Ib'' sees the artworks, and you only have Garry the first time through), and the Orange area (since some of the paintings actually change once it becomes night, meaning you need to recheck multiple rooms after the time change).
