Description official description
Jason Voorhees is hiding in the forest, waiting to avenge his mother's death, when a party of teenagers visit the eerie Crystal Lake holiday camp near the killer's filthy grotto. Jason puts on his hockey mask and sharpens his machete, ready for a razor-sharp massacre.
Ten of your friends are lost in the surroundings of Crystal Lake. Jason is out there to hunt them down. It's up to you to find him and kill him before he kills you. Luckily, there are a lot of weapons to be found in the scenery, ranging from small knives to chainsaws. Unfortunately, Jason looks like a normal player until he attacks or is attacked. So it's up to you to identify him and end the nightmare by killing Jason.
Depending on the number of friends surviving when Jason is killed, you'll get bonus points. You'll then start over again with a different character.

Can You Kill Jason Before He Kills?
The Good
In this game you are someone [It randomly changes from level to level] and must kill Jason before he kills you. Basically you have to find some weapon around the area and then when he appears [he is the guy all black] you have hit him till he dies. But note! He can become some one else's form making it harder! The only thing left to mention is that Jason goes out for people in the area too so you you need to know that. You get bonus points for how many people still alive after killing Jason.
The Bad
The two that was really disappointing was first after you've been all the people, you just start right back at the beginning, so basically you just keep going for the highest score. Second, is the SFX for screams. It can really use some improvement. The scream SFX has a girlish voice and Jason uses this voice when he dies, which is pretty dumb.
The Bottom Line
This game isn't scary or gory at all. Except for the screams and the message "Looks like your head got cut off". But This is a great game for C64.
