Night Trap

Despite all the trouble this game caused for the gaming industry, it was still an excellent game, especially for those who appreicate the B-Movie Genre. Dana Plato was great as Kelli and it gives you the feel that you are inside the B-Movie. Most of it you didn't understand but that didn't take away the feel of the game. I hope this gets re-released as a DVD, so we can actually watch the movie inside of playing the video game. If you find it at a used store, buy it. It's worth it just to see the small movie within.

I loved this game so much + it was one of the first FMV games. it's a shame that they don't make this stuff anymore, i mean games like Dragon Lair,MadDog Mcgree,Double Switch,Ground Zero. I know this games had a very litle gameplay compare to games this days but it was fun to play them. Does anyone remember Capcom's Fox Hunt for PSX :) , one of the last FMV games , that game was cool.

Night trap was considered a cult classic on the Sega cd/mega CD. It was a FMV game in which you explore different rooms in the Martins home to capture the augars which are these people dressed in weird black suits. You are a member of Scat and the objective of the game is to go to these rooms and capture them with traps that are funny/stupid. It's very short in that it only takes 25 mins to finish if you know what are you are doing. This game is hard if you playing the oringnal versions in that you don't have the screens moving In real time. The only way to master it is too play it numerous times to know when they show up as well changeing the color codes at the right times. Good news is that there is a checkpoint half way through and doesn't take long to get to it. Also the game is the same everytime you play it so it's not random. The music is cheesy yet entertaining, the theme is catchy and well Done, the acting and writing are terrible but in a b movie kind of way which makes it more enjoyable. The characters are funny if undeveloped, the FMV was good at the time, the game has multiple endings, and if you pick up the 20th anniversary version there are options like a survivor mode which is where you try to capture as many augars as you can. The game is repiptive and doesn't have much variety either. But there is something enjoyable about trapping the augers, the campy acting and storyline, over the top music, interesting idea and challenge. But don't expect to be the best thing the Sega CD has to offer. I would give it a try if you like these kind of games and that you are patient. It's also good for a laugh to.

I heard about the game's controversy in which caused the video game industry to create ratings for video games and many many many years I finally got to play it and I didn't see what the fuss is about. It's about as tame as a PG 13 movie and in matter of fact the game is kind of funny. I played this game to get a perfect game over 20 times until I finally got it. It may be controversial back in the 90s but nowadays it's more funny than controversial.

This was the first video game that actually gave the player a feeling of really being "inside" a movie. It was modeled after b-movies of the 1970s and 1980s so it has everything you can ask for in a cheeseball film. Vampires, scantily clad women, and gallons of blood and gore! All this in a video game FOR KIDS! Yeah they dont make 'em like they used to. This game caused a scandal when people realised just how sleazy it was. The fact it had a woman showing her breasts didnt really help things either. Sega eventually pulled the game after a bunch of toy store chains refused to carry it. Cool game, hope it gets re-released sometime.
