  • Sweet Home (video game)
rdfs:comment
  • In 1989, Capcom published Sweet Home; based on the movie of the same name, this RPG with Adventure Game elements arguably set the stage for the Survival Horror genre. The game often receives credit as one of the inspiring forces behind the original Resident Evil -- the game that ended up coining the genre's name -- and potentially inspiring its English title (at one point in Sweet Home, a character refers to the Mamiya mansion as a "house of residing evil"). While the game never saw release outside of Japan, you'll have no trouble tracking down its excellent Fan Translation on the Internet.

  • In 1989, Capcom published Sweet Home; based on the movie of the same name, this RPG with Adventure Game elements arguably set the stage for the Survival Horror genre. The game often receives credit as one of the inspiring forces behind the original Resident Evil -- the game that ended up coining the genre's name -- and potentially inspiring its English title (at one point in Sweet Home, a character refers to the Mamiya mansion as a "house of residing evil"). The story of the game mirrors the film's: a five-person crew ventures into the long-abandoned mansion of famed artist Mamiya Ichirou, intent on filming a documentary while trying to restore Mamiya's works. Upon entering the mansion, the group discovers that the ghost of Lady Mamiya, Ichirou's wife, haunts the placeā€¦and she does not intend to let the intruders escape with their lives. The crew must try to find a way out of the haunted mansion alive -- and lay Lady Mamiya to rest once and for all in the process. While the game never saw release outside of Japan, you'll have no trouble tracking down its excellent Fan Translation on the Internet. The Happy Video Game Nerd reviewed this game; you can watch his review on RetrowareTV.
