It's like an 8-bit Resident Evil, fitting since it inspired the series. Even has the door opening scenes and everything! But it's also kind of like an RPG, so you fight monsters and gain EXP and all that. Very interesting combo.

There's a live-action movie based on it, too! I have yet to see it, though. I think I might after I finish the game.

Here's a screenshot I took from Sweet Home, showing off what gore 8-bit can muster up. The game does get pretty creepy, and I'm not sure if the 8-bit factor makes things easier to bear or that much more horrifying.
