Outside of Japan, the game was not released.

The game is the first in a series of games of the same name. Subsequently, ports were also released for WonderSwan and Windows 95, both in 1999. In 1997, the game was ported to the PlayStation and renamed to Clock Tower: The First Fear. Clock Tower was originally published on the SNES console in 1995 in Japan and developed by Human Entertainment. In the event of an attack, the player must often press a certain key (“panic button”) to avoid death. Throughout the game, Jennifer often chases the Scissorman (aka Bobby, aka Killer With Scissors). Most tasks come down to finding keys and other things needed to complete. The game has many dangerous situations that can lead to the death of the protagonist. The game interface is similar to the adventure games of the 1990s and simplified for a better game on the gamepad.

The player controls Jennifer and gives her specific commands, for example, checking various environmental objects. The ending will change depending on the friends you’ve rescued and the information obtained from the search.The game is a Survival Horror, made using 2D graphics. Jennifer’s realistic facial expressions and escape maneuvers that change with the situation, as well as the graphics inside the mansion create a deep sense of fear. Players aim to rescue friends and escape from the mansion by hiding Jennifer well and guiding her escape. If used properly, it may be possible to break free and escape the crisis. You can exert Jennifer’s desperate will to survive by hitting the button repeatedly. Using everything in the mansion is the key to survival. Making good use of items and hiding places. Jennifer doesn’t have the strength to put up a fight, so you’ll have to get creative to escape the attacking enemies. Scissorman appears suddenly in unexpected places, relentlessly pursuing Jennifer, marked by the menacing sound of his snipping scissors. The scariest of all is “Scissorman,” a small man wielding a large pair of scissors. In the mansion, various hostile enemies appear before Jennifer. Jennifer is left alone to wander in the mansion, where an unimaginable horror awaits her on her path. However, before long, her friends suddenly disappear with a scream. The player controls a girl named Jennifer, an orphan girl who was brought to the eerie “Clock Tower” mansion with her friends from the orphanage, in exploring a huge mansion.Ī number of immersive themes, such as a powerless hero who has no choice but to flee, an oppressive environment, and an eerie enemy that suddenly appears, will have a strong impact on the player.The game begins with Jennifer visiting the mansion as an adopted daughter with an orphanage teacher and friends. Clock Tower is a horror adventure game originally released on September 14, 1995.
