Japan sure does love blood, death and horror!


8. Corpse Party

Corpse Party Gameplay

A group of high school friends conduct a superstitious friendship ritual, and end up transported to a school in an alternate universe. Their friendship is tested when they need to escape from the ghosts of past horrors.

Team GrisGris initially developed the game in 1996. Currently, they continue to collaborate with both 5pb and GrindHouse. A remake (and then several sequels) fleshes out the storyline and offers the possibility of many alternate endings.

After the extensive updates, there are more playable characters, more gore and what they call ‘wrong endings’.

Depending on in-game twists and deaths, an array of offbeat endings will appear. These increase in number throughout the game, but there are only a few ‘real’ endings.

This is a bad idea, guys.

A very bad idea, indeed.
