A cool little adventure game that sadly never came over back in the day. It reminds me a lot of something like Echo Night, just without as interesting of a story. It builds a really strong atmosphere early on that sadly disappears as soon as you realize all the threats are scripted. Still I really like the setting. Seeing this school that is all decorated for a festival be turned into this horrific environment was really cool. I like the monster design too. It has some really nice looking monsters that hold up really well. I was actually surprised how well the visuals held up in general. All the character models have more moving parts than I was expecting and generally look pretty nice for a PS1 game, and the environmental design plays a huge part in building that tense atmosphere.

The story itself is goofy but has a couple good moments and an ending that caught me off guard in the weirdest way. I certainly wasn't expecting the threats themselves to be what they were. The fan translation is really well done, if you took out some of the swearing you could have seen this being official back in the 90s.

Progression can be obtuse but thankfully it's never too bad, I managed to beat the game in about two and a half hours without a guide so it goes pretty quickly. If you can stomach dealing with the control scheme of a PS1 first person game, I'd definitely say give this a go! It's a nice spooky time game that at the very least has some killer vibes.
