DOS version
An okay-game of horror and survival
The Good
This game is cool. The movement is excellent and the items range from matchboxes to revolves. Some are used to kick monsters, and some are for environment. (oil lamps etc.) The fighting and shots are much more realistic than it's other 2 follow-up games. The atmosphere is freaky and the music is cool too.
The Bad
This was a little too short for me. Sometimes the lack of baddies annoy me too. And you can get lost VERY easily in that old house, man.
The Bottom Line
This game inspired the Resident Evil (the best horror genre EVER!) series and several great games because of it's atmosphere, movement and realism.
