![]() But for those of you that have never heard of Splatterhouse, be aware that the game is no Disneyland. Personally, I don’t mind if a game is violent, as long as the game or movie offers an well-written story and is not an excuse for gratuitous acts of violence or sexuality and to display weak and stupid characters, which I found in the movie series Crank. Not only that, maybe newcomers and some players didn’t respond well to the game’s goriness. Maybe what didn’t help to the game’s reception were the long loading times between levels, the difficulty to manipulate the camera, and the very sensible or unresponsive controls if you wanted to do certain moves. This is sad for the game ends on a cliffhanger just like in the Evil Dead movies that Sam Raimi did. Personally, I think it is a good thing they put the original games in this remake for I heard that there won’t be any sequels to this 2010 remake since Splatterhouse didn’t do enough sales to allow a sequel. This was fun to do as it reminded me of the original games, which the game offers to players for free if you want to see the complete storyline from the trilogy. Good work from the writer Gordon Rennie, and to Howard Drossin, whose soundtrack was the perfect companion to this gory horror game.Īs for the gameplay, it is set in a 3D environment, but it also offers level sections presented in side-scrolling camera angles. And for that I am glad that the game makers cast Jim Cummings (DarkWing Duck) as the Mask. But I loved and adored the twisted interactions between the Mask and Rick. Of the voice actors, I loved Josh Keaton, Richard Doyle, and Shanelle Gray’s excellent performances. Not only that, finding the complete photos of Jennifer in the game, along with doing the levels on various difficulty levels, allows us to know how the Manor was built, but also how Rick and Jennifer’s relationship went over the years. To me, this strategy allows us to dive straight into the characters’ nightmare, and forces us to venture through the game if we want to understand how Rick got to wear the Terror Mask. Of the storyline, I liked how the game’s makers interspersed several flashbacks in the storyline. ![]() As Rick follows her, both for a following date and as a bodyguard, we see their date turn from a simple academic business to a diabolical nightmare composed of twelve levels, whose designs were haunting and corresponded to the tension I found in the original games. For this story, Rick and Jennifer – instead of entering by accident the West Manor like in the first game – are instead invited to the manor as Doctor West, an eminent teacher at the Arkham University, invites Jennifer to do an interview with him for the school paper. Photo of my personal Copy of the game Splatterhouse (2010) for the XBox 360In this 21st century remake of the Splatterhouse series, this video game combines various story elements from the three original 1980s video games and presents a storyline occurring in the year 2010. “That’s why this game got an M rating” – Terror Mask
