You can also use points to unlock outfits. You start with a base amount of health items and film types for your camera depending on your chosen difficulty and you can buy more with points earned during gameplay. Each chapter will allow you to choose your difficulty level and how many supplies you can bring with you. The story revolves around 3 characters Yuri, Miu and Ren, all of whom have reason to search the mountain and all of whom are going through darkness in one way or another. There’s no comedy here, no light and almost no hope. Brace yourself if suicide is a trigger because this game goes to a very dark place indeed. It is a place where people go to end their own lives. It may sound rather pleasant but it’s the last place you’d want to sit your arse down and scoff a jam sandwich. Maiden of Black Water is set in the fictional area of Mount Hikami. But don’t let that put you off! This game has bags of atmosphere, is deliciously disturbing and can chill the spine off a giraffe. The control scheme is out of the ark and the character controls like a drunk Leon Kennedy from Resi 4.
After completing the game at around fifteen hours and with an examination of some old YouTube vids of the original, I would say it’s closer to a port so don’t expect too much in the way of upgrades. I’ve seen some debate on whether it’s a remake, a remaster or a simple port. But let’s wind forward to 2021 and it’s now been released for PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo and PC. I’m kinda gutted I missed it, because that Gamepad wasn’t good for much, but it would have been awesome for taking pics of spooky apparitions. Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water was originally released on the Wii U back in 2014/2015. Delicious, I thought, and just in time for Halloween. Never played a Fatal Frame game before and this game wasn’t even on my radar until a friend told me enthusiastically all about the ghosts and how you fight them by taking photos with a spooky antique camera.
