Clock Tower is a remaster of an iconic Japanese horror adventure game and the first installment in the series of the same name. The 1995's original was developed by Human Entertainment, while the remastered version was created by WayForward Technologies, known for DuckTales Remastered, River City Girls and the Shantae series.
It's worth noting the original game was never officially localized into English, meaning the remaster is its official debut on the western markets.
The game's protagonist is Jennifer Simpson, a young orphan adopted by the wealthy, mysterious Barrows family alongside several of her friends. Soon after arriving at the mansion, one of the teens is murdered by a shears-wielding psychopath. Jennifer must survive and find a way out of the building.
Clock Tower is an adventure game with survival horror elements. The player must explore locations, gather items and solve puzzles.
Throughout all this, we're constantly stalked by the psychotic Scissorman. Jennifer doesn't have much stamina and gets tired quickly. We must therefore manage their energy and rest whenever we have a safe moment to do so.
She doesn't have any combat skills either. Standing no chance against the armed madman, she must instead hide or run away.
The game is highly non-linear, our choices leading to one of nine possible endings.
Clock Tower only supports singleplayer.
The game features fully 2D visuals, its artstyle being inspired by Italian horror films. Compared to the original release, the graphics have been slightly updated, new cutscenes were added and more save points have been implemented.
