If you’re unfamiliar with Clock Tower, here’s the basic premise of the game:
Turn back the clock for one of the pioneers of the survival-horror genre. Translated and released outside of Japan for the first time, Clock Tower: Rewind is a revival of the terror-inducing 16-bit classic that dares you to explore the haunting confines of the Barrows family manor. As teenage orphan Jennifer, you must search every disturbing corner to find items, reveal secrets, and discover ways to evade Scissorman, a murderous, unstoppable, shears-wielding psychopath.
You’ll be able to play both the original version of the game and a special enhanced take with new features, as well as refinements to the controls. There are also a number of other features available in Clock Tower: Rewind, including developer commentary, an art gallery, a music player, and much more.
If you’re looking to make your Halloween a bit more frightening, Clock Tower: Rewind might be just what will do the trick.
