Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water

Platform: Wii U
October 22, 2015
Fatal Frame/Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water consists of 3 interconnected stories that converge to uncover the truth behind a recent group of tragic deaths in a forest marred by a history of suicides. As one of 3 people with the power of the Camera Obscura and the ability to see the shadows of those spirited away, you will explore the ruins of an eerie inn, a shrine filled with life-size dolls, and a lake full of dead priestesses. Each shadowy location is connected by a stream of water flowing throughout the mountain, and this once holy water is tied to the darkest mystery of all—the history of death and darkness on Mt. Hikami.

Where every move you make comes back to haunt you Extreme Exorcism is a paranormal platformer where every move you make comes back to haunt you. Take on the role of Mae Barrons; an Extreme Exorcist whose unconventional supernatural skills are called upon when everything and everyone else has failed to rid a haunted house of its ghostly presence. Engage in non-stop ghost annihilation in 10 eerie areas of the haunted house each room presenting its own hellish hazard. Conventional methods wont cut it with these troublesome poltergeists so Mae comes armed with a deadly arsenal of ghost-busting weapons, from rocket launchers to razor sharp boomerangs. At the end of each round, a ghost appears and mimics your every move from the round before. So the longer you survive the more extreme the game becomes. With a devilish local multiplayer you can play co-op or deathmatch modes with up to 4 of your friends, and with 50 unique challenges even the most daring Extreme Exorcist will be put to the test.
