The story is cut between 3 main characters but it does feel incredibly arbitrary with more of a focus on each of the npcs in a specific chapter than a grand overarching plot. Although the plot wants the antagonist to be the Bayonetta-like shrine maiden it ends up largely being the mountain itself.

Project Zero: Maiden Of Black Water feels like its story was written during the PS2 era of horror games. Everything in Project Zero: Maiden Of Black Water is as smooth as you’d expect and the resolution bump and clean up of text and visuals give it more polish than I was expecting.

Now it’s running on the significantly more powerful PS4 ( and PS5 if you picked up that version) it carries across the motion controls as an optional extra and everything runs a lot smoother. The novelty of a motion controlled camera with the WiiU controller screen showing the photos was cumbersome and the performance wasn’t great. Project Zero: Maiden Of Black Water wasn’t fantastic on WiiU. Almost every Switch big success has come from the WiiU and ran a lot better for porting to more powerful hardware. The PS2 originals were always classics to me and the Wii Japanese only game Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse had a lot of uniquely brilliant terror to it ( there’s a fantastic fan translation online) Now I wasn’t the biggest fan of the original WiiU release of Project Zero: Maiden Of Black Water but with Halloween knocking on our doors will the PS4 release make this the perfect spooky Halloween experience or is it just a wet blanket?įor all its issues the WiiU had games that were essentially ahead of the hardware they were on. The series has always been steeped in Japanese horror tropes and the gameplay will switch between slow paced third person spooks and fast paced action photo taking.

The Project Zero ( or Fatal Frame) series is a rare kind of Japanese horror game that focuses more on the ghost and paranormal side of terror rather than the grotesque or bizarre. That film is the Japanese original, Ju-On. Not because it’s bad, in fact it’s just too good at terrifying me and left a hell of a lasting impression. There’s one horror/mystery film I’ve seen once and that was enough, never again.
